Growing Information
Growing Teddy Bear Dwarf Sunflower
‘Teddy Bear’ is a dwarf sunflower prized for its intensely golden-yellow color, fully double blooms, and exceptionally compact growth. This genuine European strain produces plush, shaggy flowers made almost entirely of disk florets, creating the soft, cushion-like appearance that gives the variety its name.
Plant ‘Teddy Bear’ seeds about 1 inch deep and space plants 6 to 12 inches apart. Grow in full sun. Germination typically takes 7 to 10 days. Its extra-dwarf growth habit makes this variety especially well suited to containers and smaller garden spaces.
Ready to bloom in about 75 days, enjoy the fluffy golden flowers as they open and reach their best display stage. Their unusual texture makes them equally appealing in the garden and in fresh arrangements.
Compact, cheerful, and distinctive, ‘Teddy Bear’ is an excellent choice for containers, ornamental beds, borders, cut flower plantings, and pollinator-friendly gardens.
