Planting instructions

Sowing and caring for sunflowers

Sunflowers grow very quickly and thrive best when sown directly after the last frost. Alternatively, sow them indoors in trays and plant them out after 2 to 3 weeks.

Harvest sunflowers & cut them for the vase

Cut the flowers for a vase as soon as the first petals of a bloom begin to lift from the center, removing about three-quarters of the leaves from the stem. The flowers will last 7 to 10 days in a vase.
