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.

Freedom isnt free
Format: Kindle
This is an unbelievable story. Of course I had known of the USS Indianapolis and the shark attack, but never had I actually listened to a first hand account. How terrified these men had to have been. Its beyond comprehension really. The sacrifice, bravery and fortitude humbles me. Thank you to all who serve.

Best way to explore Paris
Format: Paperback
This book is awesome! I enjoyed reading it just as much as my kids did! I love the layout and the way that the book assigns the kids to be secret agents, but defers to the case officers (parents) for the final say. We were in Paris for 1 week and although the weather was less than cooperative, we were able to capture our 100 points and award our 4yo and 7yo their secret agent certificates. I love the fact that you can work on this book in any order and do as little or as much as you want at each attraction. The price was awesome and worth every penny. My 7yo particularly enjoyed the challenges at the Musee D'Orsay and the Louvre and it was a great way to keep those visits focused and entertaining for the kids. My 4yo was a little young to stay engaged with every "mission", but the activities were easy enough that she could help (ex. finding a winter scene in the Musee D'Orsay). I loved that this book engaged the kids but didn't detract from any of our visits (we didn't feel like we had to go "out of our way" to find anything). The only disappointment was that they didn't include Versailles and Sainte Chappelle. I have not only recommended this book to all my of friends traveling to Paris (honestly with or without kids), but I have also already purchased the similar books for London, New York, and Washington DC. Can't wait to see what other cities they add!

Afun way to see Paris as a kid

Great way to have kids really look at the sights of Paris. Encourages group or single competition to do each activity. Lots of visual clues.

Great travel book for kids.
Format: Paperback
This book was great, I plan to get one for any other city we visit that they have a book for. Good level info for my 8 year old but also had some fun things for my 4 year old to do. Very flexible so we could just see what we were going to see & work it into the ‘mission’. We would bust it out at our cafe/people watching stops to see what we needed to do at the next stop. The information was fun for kids and adults. You get to set points for a few things so the mission is completely attainable no matter what you do in the city AND you can set points for adventurous things your kiddos might not otherwise do... eg I got my 4 year old to try escargot!
