Growing Tips
Sow seeds directly where plants are to grow, as sunflowers don’t transplant well. Provide a sunny position and water deeply but less frequently to promote a strong taproot system. Plants stay productive in smaller beds, but in richer soil or with regular feeding, they will grow taller and produce even more blooms. Use deep, infrequent watering and a balanced fertiliser to extend flowering and keep plants vigorous.
Harvest & Display
Lemon Striker’s bright lemon blooms make it equally valuable in the garden or the vase. Outdoors, they add striking colour and vertical interest to beds and borders. Indoors, their long stems and pollen-free habit ensure clean, long-lasting floral arrangements. Quick to flower and highly reliable, Lemon Striker is a favourite for both gardeners and floral enthusiasts.
