Sunflower (Helianthus annuus) medium tall variety selection for cut flowers contains seeds of the most beautiful decorative cultivars with large, daisy-like flower heads. The centres of the capitulums might be dark or light, while the petals surrounding them take on saturated shades of yellow and orange. The maximum flower stalk height of the presented sunflowers reaches 120 to 160 cm, what makes creation of an attractive, diverse composition so much easier. The plants are made for cut flowers and original, fresh, summer bouquets.

Seeds are sown directly to soil from spring until early summer. Sunflowers do not have any special requirements regarding the soil type. They grow and bloom abundantly in different kinds of garden soil, provided it is permeable, not overdried and rather fertile. In order for the stems to be erect and straight, and the flowers intensely coloured, the plants need full, steady exposure to sunlight. Their flower heads open in July and retain their decorative value until the end of summer in September.

Each package contains 3 g of medium tall sunflower seeds in a variety selection for cut flowers. Growing instructions and the sow-by date have been included in the product information.
