Product details

Origin: The sunflower originally comes from North America. People cultivate them for their edible fruit and oil. 

Our Mr. Sunshine is a very special form of sunflower. It is a relatively low and compact sunflower with golden yellow flowers, with a diameter of approx. 20 cm.

With its growth height of approx. 60 cm, it is ideal for the GreenBox Plus, the balcony or the garden.

If the sunflower is planted out, it is ideal as an insect pasture.

The sunflower is an annual plant.

Sowing: One to two seeds per PlantPlug.

Germination period: first seedlings after 7 - 14 days.

Germination temperature: optimum 15 - 20°C, press deeper (dark germinator) 

Ideal room temperature: 18 - 28°C. 

Water requirement: Medium.

We recommend the use of our GreenBox Booster .

Placing the GreenBox in a well-ventilated place can prevent fungal diseases.

Do not need to be pruned! 

The plant flowers after about 2 - 3 months. Slight shaking of the plant or a manual transfer of pollen with a finger/cotton swab/brush increase the fertilization rate.

Beautiful cut flowers.

If the sunflower is pollinated, it can produce seeds. These can be harvested after they have withered.

Plants are not suitable for consumption.
