Sunflower Black Magic F1 Seeds

Elegance meets darkness in our sunflower black magic f1 seeds. These sunflowers feature multi-branching stems and bewitching dark maroon, pollen-free flowers. Whether adorning your borders or gracing your cut flower arrangements, they will captivate with their enchanting appearance. Begin by sowing the seeds indoors, approximately 1.5cm deep, individually in small pots filled with compost. Ensure ample watering and keep them in a cold frame or greenhouse to establish. Gradually acclimate the young plants to outdoor conditions, avoiding frost exposure, and finally plant them 45cm apart. Alternatively, sow the seeds directly into prepared, watered soil outdoors, around 1.5cm deep, placing two seeds every 45cm. Seedlings will typically emerge within 14-21 days, and you can remove the weaker one, transplanting if desired. These sunflowers thrive in well-drained, fertile soil, with a preference for full sun. Not only are they easy to grow, but bees will be attracted to their nectar-rich blooms. Perfect for both novice and experienced gardeners.
