A beautifully proportioned, prolific sunflower. The bright yellow flowerheads are borne on short, multi-branching stems and are perfect for spot planting in beds and borders.
Approx. 25 seeds
Sow 1 week after final spring frost, 13mm (1/2") deep, 10cm (4") apart, in well cultivated soil. Keep soil moist. Germination takes 7-21 days. Thin to final plant spacing when seedlings are well established. Can be started indoors up to 2 weeks before final frost. If started indoors, Sow 2 seeds per per pot and thin to strongest plant. Harden off before transplanting to the garden.
Sunflower blooms always face the rising sun, so plan wisely to be able to enjoy the flowers all day.
Sow a few seeds in late June and, in most years, you will have blooms until the first frosts.
