Umuthi Sunflower (Whole) Sprouting Seeds are natural, untreated, non-GMO seeds for growing hearty sunflower sprouts at home. The sprouts have a crunchy texture with a mild, nutty, slightly sweet flavour that works well in salads, sandwiches, wraps, soups, grain bowls, smoothies, vegetable dishes, dips, and snacks. They are a versatile sprouting option for customers who enjoy substantial sprouts with more bite than delicate leafy varieties. Whole sunflower sprouting seeds typically need warmth, moisture, good drainage, and enough light for steady growth.

♡ Why we love it: Sunflower sprouts are crunchy, nutty, and satisfying. They add texture to everyday meals and make a lovely fresh topping when you want something more substantial than a fine leafy sprout.
