Tips for Care:

Suncatcher Sunflower does best in a full sun location but can tolerate some partial shade in the hottest climates, but you’ll see a reduction in blooms and the stems may not be as sturdy. Plant in an enriched location with excellent drainage. Deadhead to keep the blooms returning and cut back in late autumn.

• Full Sun & Partial Shade
• Enriched Well-Drained Soil
• Moderate to Low Fertility Once Established
• Deadhead Often & Prune Back Late Autumn/Early Winter
