Potting Shed Creations Scatter Garden Seeds

This collection features a curated blend of four distinct sunflower varieties selected to mimic the vibrant, textured aesthetic of Van Gogh’s paintings. While the specific cultivars may vary by season to ensure the best germination, the mix is designed to provide a cohesive range of heights, colors, and petal shapes.

These sunflowers are best suited for USDA zones 5 through 9, where the growing season aligns with their needs. If you live in a colder zone, you can still grow them as annuals, but you should wait until all danger of frost has passed before sowing. In warmer zones, they may struggle with extreme heat, so ensure they receive consistent moisture.

Each 15-gram bag is designed to cover approximately 125 square feet. When scattering the seeds, aim for an even distribution to ensure the plants have enough room to develop their root systems without competing too aggressively for nutrients.

Sunflowers are generally low-maintenance, but they do require full sun exposure to thrive. Ensure they are planted in an area that receives at least six to eight hours of direct sunlight daily and keep the soil consistently moist until the seedlings are well-established.

Yes, these varieties are specifically selected for their performance as cut flowers. For the longest vase life, harvest them in the early morning when the petals are just beginning to unfurl and place them immediately into clean water.
