GROWING INSTRUCTIONS:
Direct sow seeds outdoors after the danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed up. Plant seeds 1 inch deep and 12-18 inches apart in full sun. Sunflowers prefer well-draining soil and regular watering, especially during dry spells. For a continuous display of blooms, sow seeds successively every few weeks. Stake or provide support for tall varieties, especially in windy areas. Harvest seeds when the flower heads begin to droop and the back of the head turns brown.
