Richard I grow Sunrich Orange and Sunrich Lemon yellow. They are my best
sellers. I get a buck a piece. Procuts are nice too. I can not give away the
bicolors. I plant them 20" apart and they stand up well without support. They
get 3.5-4ft tall. I cut them with a 30" stalk. This year I have some
transplanted 12" apart and they look good, hope to begin picking this
weekend, roughly 6 weeks from transplanting... Bob.

I notice on Kim's web page (http://www.barkingcatfarm.com) what look like
short, single-head sunflowers growing up through net supports. Kim, can you
tell me what variety those are, and how long the stems are? Is the netting to
keep them from falling over? I sell some sunflowers and gladioluses, and
would like to get more serious about choosing winning varieties. Stem length
seems to be a major difference among them--my initial successes have come
with very tall plants, with multiple 24-30" floral stems. Any other varietal
suggestions out there?
