Red Sunflower Seed - Flower Seeds

Helianthus annuus – Red Sunflower Seeds

A striking sunflower variety that produces bold red to deep burgundy blooms, adding dramatic colour to any outdoor garden. These compact to medium-height sunflowers are perfect for pots, borders, and landscape beds, offering a unique and eye-catching twist compared to the classic yellow sunflower. Beautiful, fast-growing, and easy to maintain in Kuwait’s cooler growing season.

How to Sow in Kuwait (Outdoor Plant)

Sow the seeds during the cooler months, ideally between October and February, when temperatures support healthy germination. Plant each seed 1–2 cm deep in loose, well-drained soil, and place them in a sunny spot outdoors. Water gently after sowing and keep the soil slightly moist until sprouts appear in 5–10 days. Once the plants establish, give them full sun and water moderately, letting the topsoil dry a bit between waterings. Avoid planting during the hot summer months, as young sunflower seedlings cannot handle extreme heat.

Seeds per Packet: Approximately 5 seeds.
