Sunflowers:Grow Like The Sun And Bloom Like Flowers

The scientific name is Helianthus annuus and it is a tall and beautiful summer flower. Facing the rising sun, sunflowers bloom, exuding warmth and vitality.

growth habits

Sunlight demand
Sunflowers prefer full sunlight and generally require at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight per day to ensure healthy growth and flowering.

soil requirements
Sunflowers adapt to all types of soil but prefer fertile, well-drained soil. They can grow in neutral to alkaline soil, but it is best to avoid soil that is too acidic.

Watering needs
Sunflowers need to keep the soil moist, but don't overwater them, which can cause root rot. Deep watering once a week is usually enough to meet its needs.

Growth height
Sunflowers can grow quite tall, usually between 5 and 10 feet, depending on the variety and growing conditions. Therefore, consider their height when planting to ensure they have enough room to grow.

livespan
Sunflowers are generally annual plants that usually take about 2 to 3 months from sowing to flowering. They grow rapidly in the summer, blooming for weeks to months after blooming.

Resilience
Sunflowers are quite tolerant and can grow in less than ideal conditions. They are drought tolerant, heat tolerant, and have low soil quality requirements, making them an ideal choice for beginners and gardeners with limited conditions.
