This sunflower brings a soft, refreshing hue to your garden with its slightly smaller flowers than the Mammoth variety but just as impressive in appearance. It blooms in profusion, creating a cheerful display that complements a wide range of garden themes and styles.
- Features:
- Color: Soft lemon yellow petals with a contrasting dark greenish center, offering a more subtle, delicate tone compared to traditional sunflowers.
- Size: Medium-sized flowers, about 4-6 inches (10-15 cm) in diameter, with a graceful and more elegant presence in the garden.
- Height: Typically reaches about 4-5 feet (1.2-1.5 meters), making it an excellent choice for smaller spaces or as a garden border.
- Blooming Time: Known to bloom profusely throughout mid and late summer.
- Specifications:
- Plant Type: Annual
- Height: 4-5 feet (1.2-1.5 meters), ideal for smaller garden spaces and containers.
- Blooming Time: Mid to late summer, continuing into early fall.
- Hardiness Zones: 3-9
- Light Requirements: Full sun to partial sun for best results.
- Soil Type: Prefers rich, well-draining soil, but can tolerate a variety of soil types with proper care.
- Watering Needs: Regular watering, especially during dry periods.
- Growing Instructions:
- Planting Time: Sunflower Lemon Queen seeds should be planted outdoors after the risk of frost has passed, or started indoors 4–6 weeks prior to the last frost date for early growth.
- Depth & Spacing: Plant seeds 1-2 inches deep and space them about 12-18 inches apart for healthy growth and good air circulation.
- Watering: Keep the soil moist during germination and initial growth stages. Once established, water deeply but infrequently to encourage strong root development. Be cautious of waterlogging.
- Sunlight: Ensure full sun or partial sun exposure to get the most vibrant bloom. Aim for at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day.
- Maintenance: Lemon Queen is relatively low-maintenance, but staking may be necessary if growing in windy areas or if the plant grows taller than expected. Deadheading spent blooms can encourage more flowers.
- Uses and Benefits:
- Garden Accent: The pale yellow flowers bring a refreshing brightness to flower beds, vegetable gardens, or mixed plantings, creating a gentle contrast with darker blooms.
- Pollinator-Friendly: Like all sunflowers, Lemon Queen attracts bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, which makes it perfect for a wildlife-friendly garden.
- Edible Seeds: Although slightly smaller than the typical sunflower, the seeds can be harvested for culinary use, roasting or adding to your cooking and snacks.
- Cut Flowers: The subtle color and elegant flower size make it ideal for cutting arrangements and floral displays.
- Easy to Grow: Known for being an easy-to-grow variety, Sunflower Lemon Queen is great for beginners and experienced gardeners alike.
