Flower Details
- Sunflowers give a sunny, cheerful look to summery wildflower bouquets and arrangements or a rustic hue to an autumn-themed event.
- These large blooms are very impactful (and heavy!) so you’ll only need a few stems for bridal bouquets or centerpieces.
- The size of every sunflower varies, they’re about 3- 4″ diameter.
- Some sunflowers will open up wide, and some will stay partially closed – part of the beauty of mother nature!
- After the petals fade – pull them off and you’ll be left with a beautiful pod-like stem for your dried arrangements
Number of Stems
- 10 stems per bunch – mini
Flower Design Type
Note that these aren’t available in winter, otherwise they’re around (they’ll be imported part of the year, part of the year locally sourced).
Specific Flower Care
- Due to their large head size, sunflowers can be a bit cumbersome to work with – have patience! They are very stiff, and will be slightly curved at the top of the stem.
- Sunflowers have heavy stems – consider weight when designing your bouquets.
- Submerging the stems briefly in a florist solution called “Quick Dip” and placing in warm water will encourage sunflowers to open to their full potential.
