The Organic Sunflower Mix transforms the garden into a bright and lively scene, where bright flowers of various shapes, sometimes giant and majestic, sometimes numerous on well-branched stems, follow each other all summer. This ornamental blend offers a captivating diversity of silhouettes and colours, dominated by bright yellow, but enriched with shades of brown and white that give depth and character to the flower beds. Very popular with bees, bumblebees and many other pollinators, sunflowers actively participate in the ecological vitality of the garden while creating a spectacular presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSowing sunflower seeds: May to June. The sowing depth is 2 to 3 cm (3\/4 to 1 1\/8 in.). Seedlings generally emerge within 7 to 14 days. For germination, keep the soil at 18 to 24°C (64 to 75°F). Transplant the young flowering plants once their true leaves have developed and their roots hold the root ball together. Handle the seedlings gently and avoid squeezing their delicate stems. Under grow lights, gradually space the containers farther apart so that the foliage does not overlap. Hardening off then prepares the plants for outdoor sunlight, wind and changes in temperature.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTheir prolonged flowering invites contemplation as much as the harvest of cut flowers or decorative heads at the end of the season. Plan the arrangement around each plant’s mature habit and the distance from which the flowers will be viewed. Position smaller flowers close to a path for easy viewing, while taller plants can provide a focal point at the back of a bed. Repeat groups of the same variety to create a clear, visible colour pattern. Leave room to reach the plants for cutting, and avoid crowding clumps simply to fill the space right away.

This open-pollinated heirloom mix produces bicolour flowers recalling evening-sun tones, each highlighted by a dark brown centre. Gaia does not list a fixed set of colours, respecting the natural variation of the mix without promising an invented palette. Plants reach approximately 6 to 8 feet high and 1 to 2 feet wide. The packet contains approximately 20 seeds certified organic by Ecocert Canada, with germination above 85% for lot GO22002. Long stems suit bouquets, while the flowers attract bees and other pollinating insects. The mix creates a warm, varied backdrop in sunny borders.

Gaia recommends soaking seeds in warm water for no more than 12 hours, then direct sowing at the end of May after frost risk has passed. Place seeds approximately 1\/2 inch deep, space plants 12 inches apart and rows 24 inches apart. Germination generally takes 10 to 14 days between 21 and 28°C, with an optimum of 23°C. Maintain even moisture during emergence, then water deeply when the soil surface begins to dry. Avoid crowding so the tall flowering stems receive good light and air circulation throughout summer. Use the product details as a clear guide on how to start seeds while keeping the growing medium evenly moist, never saturated.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGaia lists maturity at approximately 85 days. Cut flowers as they begin to open for fresh stems in bouquets. To save seed, leave heads to dry on their stems and protect them from birds and squirrels with a breathable paper bag. Finish drying in a dry, ventilated place before storing seed in an airtight container. Gaia recommends keeping this sunflower at least 12 inches from other plants.
