Sunflower Dwf Sunspot Org

No room to grow giant sunflowers? Try ‘Sunspot’ instead for its large, single flower head on dwarf, 18”-24” stalks. Kids will love growing these giant flowers that are just the right height for your favorite “Gardener in Training”! ‘Sunspot’ makes large, dramatic cut flowers, container plantings, or a short annual hedge. Attracts pollinators, and birds enjoy the seed heads in autumn and winter. Kids can dry the seeds for their own homegrown, tasty snack. Drought tolerant.

When to sow outside: RECOMMENDED.

1 to 2 weeks after your average last frost date.

When to start inside: 2 to 4 weeks before your average last frost date. Sunflowers are sensitive to root disturbance; sow in biodegradable pots that can be planted directly in the ground.
