Ornamental Sunflower Seeds by Euro Garden

Brighten Your Garden with Majestic Ornamental Sunflowers

Ornamental Sunflowers are the perfect blend of beauty and stature, bringing a cheerful, sunny vibe to any garden or outdoor space. Known for their striking yellow petals surrounding dark, seed-filled centers, these sunflowers are a standout feature that can elevate the aesthetic of your home garden.

Best Season for Planting: Plant Ornamental Sunflower seeds in the spring, after the last frost has passed. This allows them to take full advantage of the warm growing season, leading to robust and healthy plants.

Outdoor Use: Ornamental Sunflowers are best suited for outdoor planting. They thrive in garden beds, along fences, or as part of a sunny border. Their tall, sturdy stems also make them excellent for cutting gardens, providing fresh, vibrant blooms for indoor arrangements.

Health Benefits: While Ornamental Sunflowers are primarily grown for their beauty, they also contribute to the environment by attracting pollinators like bees and butterflies. This not only enhances the biodiversity of your garden but also supports healthy ecosystems.

Flowering Time: Expect these sunflowers to bloom in the mid to late summer, with flowers lasting well into the autumn, providing a long season of color and enjoyment.

Planting Instructions:

• Soil: Choose a well-draining soil with a neutral to slightly acidic pH. Sunflowers are not too fussy but thrive best in rich, fertile soils.
• Sowing Depth: Sow the seeds about 1 inch (2.5 cm) deep, spaced 6-12 inches (15-30 cm) apart, depending on the desired density.
• Watering: Water the seeds regularly, ensuring the soil stays moist until germination. Once established, sunflowers are relatively drought-tolerant but will benefit from consistent watering during dry spells.
• Light: Ornamental Sunflowers need full sun to thrive, so choose a location that receives at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily.

Care Tips:

• Support: As the plants grow, they may need staking to support their tall stems, especially in windy areas.
• Fertilization: Feed your sunflowers with a balanced fertilizer at planting time and again when the plants reach about 2 feet tall.
• Pest Control: Watch for common pests like aphids or caterpillars. If detected, treat with organic insecticidal soap or neem oil.
