How to take care of Sunflower Evening Sun
Start the seeds indoors in small pots, once they have germinated and grown into seedlings approx 15cms high they can be transplanted outdoors, when all chance of frost has passed. They require a very sunny location and will grow happily in most garden soils. The greatest treat to sunflower seedlings is slugs and snails, protect young plants at night with netting or use plastic bottles with the neck cut off. Flowers: 12-14 weeks from spring sowing. Flower production: 2-3 months Vase life: 10 days.
