Adjust staking and wind protection as plants mature. Pro Cut Series sunflower seeds mature in as early as 50 – 65 days as 48 – 72” tall bushy uprights with a 12” spread and one 3 – 4” pollenless head circled in petals of sunburst, orange, gold, red, and mixed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA common misconception about flowering \u003cem\u003eHelianthus annuus\u003c\/em\u003e heads is that they track the sun across the sky.
