King Kong

Season Overview

Description

Giant sunflower that can reach record heights. Up to 4.5m. Huge leaves and flowers on stems as thick as an arm.

Growing tips

Seeds can be sown on the spot from mid-April in grooves approx. 2 cm deep. To protect against bird predation, an insect protection net or early sowing fleece can be applied, which also improves emergence and accelerates plant development. To exploit the full growth potential of King Kong, the plants should not be planted too close together and should be watered and fertilized regularly after emergence.
