Trial: Annual

Years Trialed: 2002

Good Qualities

Nice lemon yellow (6); Very early to bloom (3); Very uniform, large heads, dark disk, short petals, no pollen; Harvest started early August (Zone 2); Single, side buds coming; Good form.

Problems

Too short (6); Tried to flower in flat (2); Large foliage; Cannot make a good appraisal, but I will try to grow these again; Unidentified pest only on this plant, small aphid-like black bugs, erupting from brown lesions on leaf midrib; Flowers very early; Spotty germination (Zone 2); I didn’t like the pale color.

Comments

Similar in color to ‘Valentine’; Light yellow, garden use; Mistaking them for ‘Soryas’. I pinched these guys to encourage branching – Would have bloomed very early otherwise! – Instead, I sold them as ‘spray sunflowers’ – These were also a hit and people requested them for weeks; This crop was grown right next to other helianthus that grew to normal height – this one did not reach more than 24 inches; Early, harvested 7/26-7/29 (Zone 6/7); Appreciated by large growers of sunflowers, good for mass production.
