Growing Information
Growing Italian White Heirloom Sunflower
‘Italian White’ is an heirloom sunflower prized for its elegant pale coloring, abundant blooms, and beautiful contrast in mixed plantings. Flowers range from ivory white to creamy primrose, each centered by a dark brown disk and contrasting ring, offering a softer alternative to traditional red and yellow sunflowers.
Plant ‘Italian White’ seeds about 1 inch deep and space plants 12 to 18 inches apart. Grow in full sun. Germination typically takes 7 to 10 days. This heat- and drought-tolerant variety performs especially well in warm, sunny conditions.
Ready to bloom in about 75 days, enjoy the flowers as they open and reach their best display stage. The abundant blooms make especially graceful additions to fresh arrangements.
Soft, elegant, and versatile, ‘Italian White’ is an excellent choice for ornamental beds, borders, cut flower gardens, bouquets, and pollinator-friendly plantings.
