DWARF SUNFLOWER 100PCS. SEEDS

Pacino Dwarf Sunflower Perfectly formed dwarf sunflowers with multiple heads on each plant, giving a lively, long lasting display. Perfect for mixed borders or large patio pots. Prefers a sunny position and well-drained soil. Height: 60cm(2ft) Dwarf Sunspot sunflower (Helianthus annuus ‘Sunspot’) reaches heights of only about 24 inches, which makes it ideal for growing in the garden or in containers. The stems are sturdy enough to support the big, golden-yellow blooms, measuring about 10 inches in diameter – perfect for cut flower arrangements. Sowing: This seed should be sown directly outdoors, since the long roots of this plant need space to develop and dislike being disturbed. In late spring after the soil has warmed to 70-75 degrees F, plant several seeds together 1" deep and 6" apart in rich, well drained soil; the seeds will begin to germinate in 8-10 days. The protection of netting or a screen may be necessary to prevent birds or animals from eating the seeds as they begin to sprout and develop; keep the soil moist. Thin to the strongest seedlings. Growing: Water the seedlings occasionally as they develop. Mature plants tolerate drought well, though they may need regular fertilizing for the best growth. Avoid overwatering, since this can cause disease. This plant attracts bees, butterflies, and birds. #sunflower #flower #seeds #sunspot #dwarf #planting #gardening
