Helianthus annuus F1 Solano® Gold
Helianthus Solano® Gold is a beautiful uniform variety with a classic, golden yellow flower with 2 to 3 layers of pointy petals and a beautiful contrasting green centre. Helianthus Solano® is a collection of cut sunflowers from Evanthia, with a great flowering power and robust, unbranched stems. With outdoor sowing from early spring to midsummer and a short cultivation period of 8 to 11 weeks, you can harvest these sun-worshippers from early summer to late autumn. Thanks to the long stems of 100 to 180 cm and the small top leaves, Solano® is easy to harvest and process. As the flowers of Helianthus Solano® are pollen-free, the flower hearts and petals remain clean, resulting in a longer vase life.
