🌻Bulk Sunflower Seeds - Cream Sunflower

Gardener packet 50 seeds; 100 seeds;  150 seeds; 200 seeds.

Half hardy annual. Single sunflower. DTM 50-60

These gorgeous pale-cream sunflowers have a double row of petals with a deep yellow centre. This variety is also known as 'Procut White Lite’ and has been bred specifically for cut flower production. The stems are robust, and the flower heads tilt upwards with no drooping or soft neck issues once cut. Planting distance has a significant impact of final flower-head size; plant out at 10-15cm spacing for bouquet-sized heads 

Sow under cover 3-4 weeks before your last frost date; sow outside or plant out after risk of frost has passed. Sow in succession until June for a continuous harvest. Sowing temp 18-21°C; germination between 7-14 days in optimum conditions. Do not pinch! 

Cut sunflowers as the first couple of petals begin to lift off of the flower bud. Sunflowers cut fully open are easily damaged in transit, and pollination reduces vase life. Place immediately into water; no special conditioning requirements.

Vase life: 7-10 days
