Strawberry Blonde Hybrid Sunflower
Growing Strawberry Blonde Hybrid Sunflower
‘Strawberry Blonde’ is a distinctive hybrid sunflower prized for its unusual rosy coloring, branching growth, and pollen-free blooms. Large flowers feature petals ranging from pink to burgundy with soft lemon tips surrounding dark central disks, creating a romantic color combination rarely seen in sunflowers.
Plant ‘Strawberry Blonde’ 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 65 days, enjoy the flowers as they open and reach their best display stage. Branching plants provide multiple pollen-free blooms that are especially well suited to clean indoor arrangements.
Soft, unusual, and florist friendly, ‘Strawberry Blonde’ is an excellent choice for ornamental beds, borders, cut flower gardens, bouquets, and pollinator-friendly plantings.
