Sunflowers can be sown directly in final location or in pots.

Sow seeds individually in pots about 3cm deep. Keep in a warm spot and water regularly. The best time to sow is from late April to Mid May. Harden the seedlings off before planting outside. They need to be about 50cm – 100cm between plants. Be aware of slugs and snails which will quickly make a meal of the young plants. Stake the plants as they grow up to 3m tall. The stunning flowers are the perfect garden statement!
