Suncredible® Yellow Sunflower Care

Suncredible® Yellow Sunflower thrives in full sun and requires 6 or more hours of sunlight daily. This plant is easy going and has average water and soil needs. It does best in soils rich in organic matter, but it can also tolerate poor soil and with fewer blooms. Ensure soils are well-draining and moist, but once established, it can tolerate periods of drought. Apply a slow-release fertilizer in the early spring and in mid-summer to keep blooms bountiful.

Treat Helianthus as an annual. It will last from spring planting until hard frost. Overwintering in colder zones is not recommended. It is hardy to zones 9 to 11.

Suncredible® Yellow Sunflower Spacing

Allow an 18 to 24-inch space between plants when adding Helianthus to a container or in the landscape. A 14-inch pot is ideal. Allow at least a 6-inch gap between plants when applying it to a container.
