This variety of dwarf sunflower (Helianthus annuus) features a colourful mix of dwarf cultivars, producing vibrant yellow flowers in various forms, including single and full blooms. The plants reach heights between 30 and 90 cm, forming dense, attractive clumps that serve as an excellent backdrop for other flowers or as a standalone decorative element. Suitable for both flower beds and container cultivation, these seeds are ideal for quick garden revitalisation. With rapid growth and prolonged flowering, they provide aesthetic appeal throughout the season.
It is recommended to sow dwarf sunflower seeds directly into the soil. Direct sowing allows the plants to develop their root system naturally and to establish more quickly. Prior to sowing, loosen and clear the soil, then keep it moderately moist to facilitate germination.
The optimal depth for sowing is 1-2 cm. Seeds should be lightly covered with soil and gently pressed down. Sowing too shallow may cause drying out, while sowing too deep can delay germination.
The best period for sowing is from April to June. The soil should be warmed and well-drained. Plants sown during this time will bloom in summer, with flowers decorating the space into early autumn.
The recommended spacing is 30 x 25 cm. Adequate spacing ensures better access to light, promotes strong stems, and results in more abundant flowering. Overly dense sowing may lead to weaker growth and increased susceptibility to disease.
Low-growing sunflower varieties pair well with annual plants such as marigolds, cosmos, cockscomb, or statice. They can also be combined with pollinator-friendly plants like phacelia, cornflower, borage, or lavender. Avoid planting near tomatoes and potatoes, as they may share common diseases.
Sunflowers thrive best in sunny, warm locations. The soil should be well-drained, light, and rich in humus. Excess moisture can cause root rot, while shade may reduce flowering. Proper site selection is essential for optimal growth.
This plant is easy to cultivate and requires minimal maintenance. Regular watering during dry periods and moderate fertilisation with compost or organic fertilisers are sufficient. Removing spent flowers can prolong flowering. The plant is resistant to most diseases and tolerates urban conditions well.
The mixed cultivar of dwarf sunflower reaches heights from 30 to 90 cm. Its compact growth makes it suitable for planting in pots, on balconies, terraces, as well as in low flower beds or edging arrangements.
This versatile plant is ideal for urban planting, private gardens, balcony containers, and floral arrangements. It performs well in naturalistic and ecological gardens. The flowers attract bees and other pollinating insects, supporting local ecosystems.
