Autumn Beauty Organic Sunflower is a striking multi-colored variety featuring large blooms in warm autumn shades of golden yellow, orange, bronze, copper, and deep red. It brings a vibrant seasonal display to gardens and is ideal for home gardens, flower beds, and cut flower production while attracting bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators.
Full Description:
This organic, branching variety produces strong plants reaching 150–210 cm (5–7 ft) tall with multiple blooms per plant. Flowers measure approximately 12–18 cm (5–7 in) across and display a beautiful mix of warm tones, often varying on the same plant for a naturally dynamic look. Flowering begins about 75–90 days after sowing, depending on growing conditions, and continues over an extended period due to its branching habit. It requires full sun with at least 6–8 hours of direct sunlight daily. No artificial lighting is needed for germination, and it is an easy, fast-growing variety.
Growing Guide for the Gulf Region:
For best results, sow seeds directly in their permanent location from mid-September through the end of February. Seeds can also be started indoors in early September and transplanted outdoors once temperatures are suitable.
Sow seeds 2–3 cm (¾–1¼ in) deep, spacing plants 45–60 cm (18–24 in) apart. Seeds typically germinate within 7–14 days at temperatures between 20–25°C (68–77°F). Grow in well-drained, fertile soil and water regularly, allowing the soil surface to dry slightly between waterings. Apply a balanced fertilizer every 2–3 weeks during active growth to support strong plants and abundant flowering.
