Helianthus annuus F1 Premier Lemon – Early, Pollen-Free Sunflower for Cut Flower Cultivation
The Helianthus annuus F1 Premier Lemon is a high-quality F1 hybrid sunflower from the Premier series, developed for rapid growth, uniformity, and professional cut flower production. This non-branching and pollen-free variety combines a striking lemon-yellow flower color with excellent growing characteristics, making it perfect for both commercial growers and home gardeners looking to harvest high-quality cut flowers.
Premier Lemon is an extra-early sunflower with a very short growing period of only 45–55 days after sowing. For Northwest Europe, this makes the variety ideal for both spring production (105-day variety) and summer production (55-day variety). The short growing period allows for multiple crop cycles per season, allowing growers to achieve high turnover rates and efficient harvest planning. This rapid development makes Premier Lemon particularly suitable for markets, florists, and seasonal bouquets.
For optimal results, sowing under long-day conditions is recommended. Long days encourage rapid stem growth, sufficient stem length, and uniform flowering, essential for professional cut flower production. The plants grow vigorously and upright, with an upright flower head, making them perfect for cut flowers, flower arrangements, and field bouquets. The excellent uniformity of the Premier series allows for almost simultaneous harvests, saving labor and time.
One of the biggest advantages of the Premier series is that the flowers are pollen-free. This means they stay fresh longer in vases and bouquets, without yellow stains or soiling tables and clothing. The non-branching habit produces a single central flower per stem, giving each plant a uniform, vibrant appearance. The lemon-yellow color of the flower also makes this sunflower a striking eye-catcher in summer bouquets, bridal work, and decorative arrangements.
The Premier Lemon was developed with commercial cut flower production in mind. Its sturdy stems provide optimal support for the flowers, while the uniform development of the crop allows for efficient harvesting. Thanks to its combination of speed, uniformity, and aesthetic appeal, this variety is ideal for growers who strive for high quality and consistency in their cut flowers.
