Dwarf sunspot sunflower seeds grow 1-2 feet tall with an average sized single 10 inch head. Great plants for the outside edge of a flower seed garden. Bird farmers may find this variety provides a great natural type food and cover for pheasants and other upland game birds.
Sunflowers are drought and heat tolerant easy to grow from flower seed. Great for kids and containers too. Best planted when soil temperatures reach 65 degrees or warmer. Keep moist until sprouts are about 2 weeks old or well established. Sow sunflowers seeds 1 - 1 1/2 inch deep when all danger of frost has passed. Tolerates many soil conditions but thrives in well drained fertile soil.
