Overview

With stunning blooms from mid-summer to early fall, sunflowers bring summer vibes to the garden like no other plant. Flowers come in many colors (yellow, orange, maroon, and more) but they are commonly bright yellow with dark brown centers anywhere from 4 to 12 inches in diameter! These iconic blooms are a beautiful addition to any garden.

Sunflowers have two distinct growing habits, depending on the variety:

Single-stem varieties produce one flower for every seed, though blooms can reach up to 12 inches in diameter. 

Branching varieties produce multiple smaller blooms per plant that branch off of the main stem. 

Conditions

Sunflowers prefer fertile, well-draining soil that’s loose and deep. Ensure it is high in organic matter, as sunflowers feed heavily. Sunflower stems can grow tall, so ideally find a sheltered spot out of danger of heavy winds to limit the risk of weather damage. For optimal blooms and large plants, provide full sun (6+ hours of direct sunlight per day). Note - sunflowers may shade parts of the garden because they are so tall. Plant them in the northernmost section of the garden to prevent them from shading your other plants. 

Planting

Plant sunflowers directly outdoors in the garden after all danger of last frost. Use our grow calendar tool to find specific planting dates for your region! Seeds germinate in 7-14 days.

Plant seeds ½" deep in groups of 3, and space the groups 12-24" apart, depending on the variety. Note - single stem varieties can be planted more closely together, around 6-12". Firm soil lightly, water and keep evenly moist. Thin to one seedling per group when seedlings have two sets of leaves.  

Pests and Disease

Remove plants after they are killed by frost in fall to avoid disease issues the following year.

Harvest

Sunflowers can be left in the garden through blooming or cut for flower arrangements shortly after bloom. To harvest the seeds, cut the heads off after the stalks are quite dry and flower heads begin to turn yellow and droop. Cut flower-heads with a foot of the stalk attached. Hang heads in a warm, dry, well-ventilated place so the seeds may fully ripen and dry.

Great product! I do not understand why anyone would make or buy any cord without a 90 degree plug-in for their RV.
Size: 25-Foot, Style: 90° Locking End
We had to replace the plug on our RV: The plug was destroyed by the stiff 50 amp cord that; came with our RV that put a lot of pressure on the plug-in on our RV causing it to arc and melt both the male and female where the cord was plugged into the RV. . The heavy duty 90: degree end has a soft flexible cable and greatly reduces the stress on the RV plug. I expect this cord will last much longer. Would recommend this cord to anyone. I do not understand why anyone would make or buy any cord without a 90 degree plug-in for their RV. Dealers may not have this item in stock.

Good compromise
Size: 25-Foot, Style: 90° Locking End
I decided to go with this much cheaper version of the same yet higher quality cord from camping world. I really like the 90 degree connectors as these cords are heavy and I did not like the added stress on the RV power connector of the straight connectors. Also did not like the way the straight connector sticks out on camping would’s version so if I accidentally bumped into the cord it could easily be broken. The clamp ring on this one has large lugs making it much easier to tighten onto the RV threads. I really struggled with the ones that don’t have the large lugs. The easy to grip handles are also nice to have when removing from power. My one complaint, the cable jacketing is of lesser quality. You can literally feel the individual conductors inside the jacketing when handling. This makes me feel like this cord will not have the sturdiness to last over time and an insulation failure could be a dangerous situation. If I could get the connectors of this cord with the cable quality of the camping world version, I would pay for the quality.

Great generator cord
Size: 25-Foot, Style: 90° Locking End
I’ve had this cord for 5 years for use with my emergency generator, it doesn’t get used often, but when I’ve needed it it’s been flawless.
