Planting Tips:

• Warm-season tender annual
• Prefers full sun
• Plant outdoors after danger of frost has passed and soil has warmed
• Start seeds indoors 2-3 weeks before planting date or cast seeds directly in the garden
• Cover seeds with soil
• Allow 2-10 days to germinate
• Space plants 6 apart in the garden
• Grows to 60-72 tall
• 50-60 days to bloom
• 4-6 pollenless beautiful blooms

Harvesting Tips:

• These are all one bloom harvests, make the cut to the desired length.
• Harvest sunflowers when they are just beginning to open and the petals are unfolding. This prevents the pests from nibbling on the petals.
• Control the size of the flower head by the spacing of the plants in the garden. 6 x 6 spacing produces a nice 4 bloom. 9 x 9 spacing will produce a larger bloom. This is true with most sunflowers.
