Twool Prop it ‘n’ Crop it - Sunflower 'Red Sun'

£7.00

Sow and support prize-winning sunflowers with this clever combination of seeds and twine.

Your sunflower seeds, carefully chosen from Thomas Etty heritage seeds in Kent, will produce an abundance of medium-sized blooms with coppery-red petals and inky black centers. Red Sun's branching habit means you get multiple flowers, not just one perched on top! Excellent as a cut flower. Prop your crop with award-winning, sustainable British Twool twine made from the fleece of rare breed Whiteface Dartmoor sheep.

  • Perfect for growing in the garden or allotment
  • Product size: 14 cm x 19 cm
  • Plant size: 1.8 m x 45 cm
  • Sow from March until May - I find they make more vigorous plants sown direct.
  • Prefers full sun and fertile soil
  • Full growing instructions are provided on the reverse of the seed packet
  • The packaging and product are fully biodegradable 
  • Made in England

Brand Focus

Twool

With a commitment to sustainability, British materials and heritage manufacturing, the team at Twool has created a range of superb twines and ties using wool from rare-breed Whiteface Dartmoor sheep. By collecting wool from farmers who practise regenerative agriculture, dying it using low-impact dyes and spinning in Yorkshire, Twool offers a sustainable alternative to imported jute twine. Not only does Twool have multiple uses in the garden, but it's perfect for tying parcels and gifts. The only challenge is choosing a colour!
