Good Qualities
Great color (7); Fast crop time (3); Very uniform flowering time (3); Held up as well as ‘Sunbright’; Great by themselves, good quality size flowers, long stems, sturdy stems; Strong stems, petals seemed less susceptible to bruising than most yellows; One of the best sunflowers I have ever grown; I grew the whole series this year and they are all fabulous, ‘Pro-cut’ is the one to beat; Favorite new sunflower; Earlier than’ Sunrich Lemon’; Harvested about 70 days after direct seeding; Big, even consistent headed flower with a very crisp look, held heads up in spite of size, no doubt smaller stems would hurt this attribute, but if heads were smaller as well….
Problems
Stems too thick (3); Too big for florist use; I would not grow again because of this; Customer likes deeper color, too pale; Didn’t really like the size of the heads, the disk was too big in proportion to the ray petals, the stems were much too big, could not handle them, this could be a function of transplanting spacing so if I were to try again, I would plant closer, opens fast and turns sideways, 5 off-types in a 15 foot row; Stems too short.
Postharvest
Did not use any post harvest treatment.

Comments
Similar to ‘Sunrich Lemon’ (2) or ‘Moonbright’ – but much stronger head – beautiful yellow, double petals; Seeded directly to a 128 cell tray, 4/16/04, harvested 6/30/04; Good single stem; Flower diameter was 6.3 inches; Quick producer, though I didn’t record dates, will try much closer spacing to bring stem size down.
