Growth, cultivation and performance

Helianthus annuus F1 ProCut® Orange was specifically developed for commercial cultivation and stands out for its consistent growth pattern. The cultivation period is typically between 60 and 70 days, depending on temperature and light conditions. Thanks to its predictable flowering time, the variety is ideal for successive plantings or programmed production, making it ideal for peak seasons such as summer, autumn, and special events.

The variety thrives in open ground, but is also suitable for cultivation in tunnels and greenhouses. Sunflowers prefer a sunny location, fertile, well-drained soil, and regular watering. Thanks to their compact foliage and strong stems, the plants remain healthy and wind-resistant. The average plant height is 150 to 170 cm, ideal for high-quality cut flowers.

The flower diameter typically ranges from 12 to 15 cm, creating a powerful visual impact without being overpowering in mixed bouquets. The warm orange hue makes this variety particularly popular for autumn bouquets, weddings, event styling, and summer decorations. The strong color also works perfectly with shades of red, sunny yellow, deep brown, and dark green foliage.

Although ProCut® Orange was primarily developed as a cut flower variety, it also performs exceptionally well in cut flower gardens, educational gardens, and landscaping.
