Little Ted is a bushy, short-growing sunflower with super fluffy pompom flowers. Soooo cute! This fuzzy little guy doesn't take up much space, and grows really well in a pot. The happy golden-yellow flowers look amazing in a vase, and last for ages.
Sow direct where they are to grow. Firm down, water gently and keep moist through germination period.
Choose a warm, sunny, well-drained position sheltered from wind. Add Yates Thrive Natural Blood & Bone before planting. Keep free from weeds and keep well watered. Apply Yates Thrive Soluble Flower & Fruit Fertiliser regularly. Protect from snails and slugs.
Remove spent blooms to prolong flowering.
Store in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
