How To Grow
GROWER TIP: Sunflowers develop long taproots, so it is best to use a loose sowing medium. They also do not transplant well, so if you decide to start some of your sunflowers indoors, we recommend using biodegradable CowPots. Direct sow in early spring when temperatures are at least 65°F.
