Sunflower Planting Instructions:
1. When to Plant: Sunflowers love the heat! Direct sow outdoors after all danger of frost is gone and the soil is warm.
2. Preparation: Select a very sunny spot with plenty of room. Because they grow so tall, they need protection from strong winds (planting against a fence or wall is ideal).
3. Sowing: Plant seeds 1 inch deep. Give them plenty of space, as these giants have large root systems.
4. Care: Water deeply and regularly, especially when the flower heads are forming. They are heavy feeders and appreciate a boost of compost or organic fertilizer.
5. Pests and Diseases: Watch for squirrels and birds as the seeds ripen! Harvest the heads once the back of the flower turns yellow-brown and the seeds are plump.
Helianthus annuus
