What makes Sunrich unique?
Sunrich sunflowers are developed to meet the needs of growers and florists alike. These varieties offer:
- Pollenless blooms: Ideal for clean, allergen-free floral arrangements
- Densely petaled blooms: Creating vibrant, full flowers that stand out in any display
- Sturdy stems with compact top leaves: Ensuring ease of handling and excellent transportability
- Long-lasting flowers: Satisfaction from field to vase

Sunrich varieties flower in 70 to 120 days after sowing, depending on growing conditions, ensuring flexibility and consistent performance for professional growers.
DMR: The future of sunflower cultivation
Downy mildew resistance (DMR) is transforming sunflower production by offering reliable protection against a persistent and costly disease. DMR varieties provide:
- Enhanced disease protection: Resistance to multiple strains of downy mildew, significantly reducing crop losses
- Cost efficiency: Lower reliance on chemical treatments, saving growers money
- Environmental benefits: More sustainable production practices with reduced chemical use
Currently, varieties like Sunrich Orange DMR are commercially available, providing growers with exceptional quality and added resistance. Sunrich Orange DMR maintains the same plant height, growth speed, and vibrant blooms as the classic Sunrich series, giving growers the best of both worlds—disease resistance and proven performance.
Takii is committed to extending DMR to more Sunrich varieties, ensuring that growers can rely on this cutting-edge innovation across the series in the near future.
