These seeds mature quickly in 90-110 days, thrive in USDA zones 2-10, and come in a 50-seed packet with planting instructions, making them ideal for outdoor gardens seeking a dramatic summer focal point. ## Description Velvet Queen sunflowers grow so vigorously that there is little reason to start seeds indoors. Sow Velvet Queen seeds directly after final frost in a sunny spot at the north end of the garden and shelter from strong winds. Sunflowers may need staking if grown isolated and away from the support of a full garden. Velvet Queen seeds will take 7 – 14 days for germination. Plant 2 – 3 Velvet Queen sunflower seeds ½” deep 10 - 12” apart in average, light, loamy, and well-drained soil in full sun. Always plant tall variety sunflowers at the north end of a garden because it will not take long for it to overshadow a poorly planned garden. Adjust staking and wind protection as Velvet Queen sunflower matures. Monitor regularly for foliage-eating beetles and caterpillars. Velvet Queen sunflower seeds are quick to mature at 90 - 110 days as 60 – 72” tall branching uprights with 10” wide spreads and one 8” head of smokey blood-orange mahogany petals around a black seeded center.

I have tried several times to plant others with them and they have never sprouted. These are happily poking up through a thin layer of mulch already. I am going to buy some more today ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wow *by V***A on January 29, 2026* Beyond beautiful. Images make no justice. ### ⭐ False advertising… Lies. These are not red. *by A***T on June 27, 2025* This is an absolute lie. This is false advertising. The sunflowers absolutely are not red. They are yellow like regular old sunflowers. I have contacted the manufacturer and they are refusing to send my money back. I ordered two packages of these and neither package is actually producing any red sunflowers at all. Apparently, Amazon thinks that I should be able to plant these seeds and have them bloom within 30 days of purchase. That’s odd because it takes about 90 days for sunflowers to bloom don’t get ripped off. Don’t purchase these. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/351278596-velvet-queen-sunflower-seeds-for-planting-heirloom-non-gmo-50](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/351278596-velvet-queen-sunflower-seeds-for-planting-heirloom-non-gmo-50) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-08-25*
