Sunflower Problems

Sunflowers

they grow? When I grew them in pots they kept blowing over on windy days, so I would suggest you weight the pots. If they are tall ones I would want the pot to be at least 50cm wide. I would plant them up now. This year I have sown Dwarf sunflowers as I want by Tina_i_am
