Care: Pre-cultivation takes place in a warm environment (greenhouse/windowsill), sown 2-3 cm deep (germinates in darkness) in pots, about 2-3 seeds per pot. From mid-May (frost-free), the plants can be planted outdoors, but should be acclimatized to outside temperatures (hardened off) beforehand. From mid-May, direct sowing can be done outdoors, directly in place. Keep temperatures and moisture constant. Use sowing soil! Plant spacing 50x50 cm.
Use: Piccolo is particularly suitable for vase cutting, as well as for planting along fences and flower beds.
Gardener's Tip: Nutrient-rich, well-drained soil and sufficient moisture promote good development. Additional fertilization is advantageous. The durability of sunflowers increases enormously when the stems are placed in boiling water for about 1 minute. Then immediately place them in the vase.
