I'm getting increasingly worried that my plant isn't going to last until the 15th Sept.

What beautiful flowers. It looks like I may have saved my tallest sunflower which was found lying almost horizontal along the ground after the winds of the weekend. It has been tied to the fruit cage only after I had ensured half the neighbourhood were aware of the disaster befalling our household! I shall be keeping my fingers crossed for the next few weeks.

Complete sunflower failure here - but some of the roses just keep on flowering.

Mine are about 74" so I think we've had talker, and the head is just forming!
