Late summer means the Biltmore sunflowers are blooming. Standing as tall as 8 feet high, the flowers stretch nearly one mile along the road that takes guests from Biltmore House to Antler Hill Village and the Winery. On bright, sunny days, the flowers gently bob their heads against a backdrop of blue sky to create an irresistible summertime selfie moment. Photo credit: The Biltmore Company

“This is an amazing way to showcase the beautiful agriculture legacy of Biltmore to our guests,” says Kyle Mayberry, director of agriculture. While the sunflowers provide show-stopping beauty, they also serve as nourishment for the wildlife that inhabits estate grounds. Photo credit: The Biltmore Company
