| | | re: Tallest Sunflower Competition? I would love to join , I have been promising two little girls ( 4 & 6 ) to plant them for weeks, so this will be extra fun for them.
I have two packs ready so off to find the sun

| | | re: Tallest Sunflower Competition? Hmmmmm..........I was just about to say what a great idea and was off to get my seeds tomorrow..........but having seen that whopper of a sunflower  , I don't think I have much chance at all now!! I've never even managed to grow one taller than me and I'm only 5ft 2! 
So........I have to ask...........what's your secret ?? Any tips for the more vertically challenged sunflower growers amongst us???
I think Miracle Grow will have to be an option worth considering this year!
Gloves are off!

Btw Stewy, how tall was it? |  | | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
