Sonja is a quintessential sunflower with its 10cm (4”) blooms of bright yellow/orange petals with dark centres. 96-106cm (38-42") tall branching plants produce 8 or more flowers on long, strong stems. A day-length neutral variety that produces pollen loved by bees.
Approx. 25 seeds
Timing: Direct sow repeatedly after the last frost date. Starting indoors is possible, but does not gain much time. If sunflowers are allowed to get root-bound, they will lack stability at transplant time, and will require staking. Optimal soil temperature for germination: 21-30°C (70-85°F). Seeds should sprout in 10-14 days.
Starting: Sow seeds 5mm-1cm (¼-½”) deep. Space dwarf varieties 15cm (6″) apart, but give the giants lots of room at 1m (3′) between plants.
