Sunflower Autumn Beauty Mix brings warm yellow, bronze and burgundy tones to flower beds and cutting gardens, with varied shades and striking bi-color patterns. This packet contains 400 non-GMO, heirloom seeds for branching sunflowers that can produce multiple flowers on each plant.

Imagine gathering a bouquet that looks different with every cutting: sunny petals, deeper autumnal shades and contrasting centers combine in an informal, colorful arrangement. The branching habit offers several stems rather than a single uniform bloom, making this mix a rewarding choice for gardeners who enjoy both flowers in the landscape and fresh arrangements indoors.

Flowers can reach approximately 8 inches across under suitable conditions, though bloom size and color vary. Pollen-bearing flowers provide interest for visiting insects, and mature seed heads can be left for birds where appropriate. Plant spacing, weather and care influence stem strength, branching and the display.

Germination Rate: 80%. Test Date: 1/26. AWSC.

Why Choose Autumn Beauty Mix Sunflower?

• Warm-toned variety: Yellow, bronze and burgundy shades bring a rich palette to garden beds and bouquets.
• Bi-color interest: Some flowers show contrasting petal patterns; the mix does not guarantee equal numbers of every color.
• Branching habit: Multiple flowering stems provide a different growing experience from single-stem sunflower varieties.
• Cutting-garden appeal: Gather fresh stems for informal arrangements while enjoying flowers outdoors.
• Pollinator interest: Pollen-bearing blooms can attract visiting bees and other insects.
• Heirloom seed: An open-pollinated choice. Seed saving requires appropriate isolation if you want to maintain variety characteristics.

Planting Tips for Success

• Sunlight: Choose full sun with approximately 6 to 8 hours of direct light daily.
• Soil: Prepare well-drained soil and incorporate compost as appropriate. A pH near 6.0 to 7.5 suits sunflower growth.
• Sowing: Direct-sow approximately ½ inch deep after frost danger has passed and soil has warmed, following packet guidance.
• Indoor starts: If starting indoors, transplant young seedlings carefully and avoid unnecessary root disturbance.
• Spacing: Allow approximately 12 to 18 inches between plants or follow packet recommendations, leaving room for branching and airflow.
• Watering: Maintain moisture during establishment and water deeply as needed later, adjusting to soil and weather rather than a fixed schedule.
• Fertilizing: Follow soil-test or fertilizer-label guidance. Avoid excessive nitrogen that favors leafy growth.
• Support: Assess plants as they develop and stake or provide suitable support in windy or exposed locations.
• Successive sowings: Make additional plantings during suitable warm weather if enough season remains for flowering. Continuous blooms are not guaranteed.
• Cutting: Cut with clean tools as petals begin opening, place stems promptly in clean water and remove foliage below the waterline.
• Seasonal care: Remove spent flowers where appropriate, or leave selected heads to mature seed for birds or deliberate seed collection.
