HOW TO GROW TEDDY BEAR SUNFLOWERS

Teddy Bear Sunflowers are easy to grow and have many benefits.  They attract bees and butterflies, make excellent cut flowers, and are actually edible!

These dwarf flowers take up little space in the garden and can even be grown in raised beds and containers. 

Teddy Bear Sunflowers are incredibly easy to grow- even children can grow them from seed with no problem! 

Give Teddy Bear Sunflowers a full sun location.  This means that they need at least 6-8 hours of sunlight in order to thrive. 

If they don't receive enough light, Teddy Bear Sunflowers will not produce as many blooms.  They will also stretch towards the light, becoming distorted!

These fuzzy flowers need fertile, well draining soil in order to thrive.  While sunflowers can grow in poor soil, they really love fertile soil the best!
