When to Sow Desire Red F1 Sunflower Seeds

April to May

Where to Sow

Sow seed thinly in drills 45cm (18") apart in well cultivated soil raked to a fine tilth. Germination usually takes 15-21 days.

For Earlier Sowings

Sow indoors, individually in 7.5cm (3") pots at 20-25°C. When well grown, gradually acclimatize to outdoor conditions before planting out after all risk of frost has passed in a well drained soil in full sun or into containers.

What to do Next

When large enough to handle, thin to 45cm (18") apart. If growing in containers, plant up to 5 plants per 45cm (18in) diameter container.

Handy Tip

Stunning when planted towards the front of borders. Remove old flower heads to encourage side branching.
