About This

• Dwarf Sunspot produces the same massive 10-inch golden-yellow blooms as full-sized sunflower varieties that grow over 8 feet tall — on a compact 30-36 inch plant. All the wow factor, none of the towering height, making it one of the most versatile sunflowers you can grow.
• Thrives in zones 3-11 in full sun. Direct sow after last frost, spacing 12-18 inches apart. Matures in 65-80 days. Drought and poor-soil tolerant once established — one of the most forgiving sunflowers available for challenging garden conditions.
• Direct sow ½-1 inch deep in full sun after all frost risk has passed. Soil temperature should be at least 50°F. Does not require staking due to compact, sturdy habit. Grows well in containers with at least 12 inch depth and good drainage.
• Large golden blooms are highly attractive to bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds throughout the season. Seed heads provide valuable late-season food for birds as summer ends. An excellent companion planting choice to draw pollinators into vegetable gardens.
• The Seed Spot offers a diverse and wide variety of vegetables, herbs, and flowers.
