Fab idea, I know just the spot...

I can probably do better than that!

I've got some sunflower plants in small pots so they'll have a head start.

Just think of the lovely splashes of colour and the birds will love harvesting the seeds after they've bloomed.

It's local election day on Thursday too! So use your vote and plant a sunflower!

Just got back from doing two patches. One Tall Single and another reddy brown one I've already forgotten the name of (Edit - just checked, it's called claret). It's on my walk to the train station so I can do twice daily checks

My kids are growing sunflowers this year. We love them. Im always fascinated when they turn their heads through the day to face the sun, its so much more pronounced in sunflowers.
