Description
A charming little sunflower with a unique appearance, shape, and color.

Italian White produces slightly smaller creamy-yellow flowers with hints of a beautiful ivory shade.

The variety branches out and typically produces many enchanting sunflower blooms throughout the season.

Italian White is known to bloom a bit longer than other sunflower varieties, and due to its narrower stems, they are perfect for cutting.

With its soft appearance and enchanting color, this has quickly become a true summer favorite in both cut flower beds and larger pots. An easy-to-grow variety loved by all our pollinators!

Care and cultivation advice

Sow indoors in March-April in planting soil, one seed per pot. Try to keep the seeds at 20-25 degrees Celsius before and after germination, keeping them in a bright and cool place. If the roots start to appear at the bottom of the pots, it’s time to transplant them into larger ones.

The seedlings are planted out once they have been properly hardened off and the risk of frost has passed. Sunflowers thrive in a sunny location with plenty of space for their roots. They grow well in nutrient-rich planting soil, and for particularly tall sunflowers, we recommend fertilizing and providing additional nutrients throughout the growing season.

This variety can also be sown directly in the planting area in May-June, but will have a slightly later blooming period.
