I walked right out of the machinery
My heart going boom boom boom
"Hey" he said "Grab your things

I know it's possibly a bit early to be classed as a winner but my biggest seedling is about two inches now.

Right, Madmax, Aranthos, myself and younger son (not yet a grape) will take part. I have some sunflower seeds from bird food and some from gerbil food. I will note which are which to compare flowers later on (if I manage to grow a blooming sunflower for the first ever time). Great suggestion!
Can't wait for my cut out Wayne!!Happy Gardening,

Right - now off to get birdseed at t'weekend. Have to keep it a bit quiet as the OH doesn't agree with large sunflowers - so I think my plan'll be to plant the red ones coming from realseed; and smuggles a few birdseed ones in the mix.
Hope he doesn't read this on the QT...
