Planting & Care
Sow Blue Teddy Bear Sunflower seeds directly outdoors after the last frost date, or start them indoors 2–3 weeks before the last frost. Plant seeds about 1/2 inch deep and keep the soil consistently moist until germination, which usually occurs in 7–14 days. Thin seedlings to the recommended spacing once they are a few inches tall.
Choose a location with full sun and well-drained soil. Water regularly, especially during dry spells, and avoid overhead watering to help prevent disease. Taller plants may benefit from staking in windy areas. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage continued flowering, or leave some seed heads for birds.
