I have about 14 survivors, 6 just gone into bigger pots, the others I might grow on and plant them up at the local railway station to brighten it up!

I am growing some from the birds sunflower seeds, they are currently in toilet roll middles but need potting on soon, maybe do that at the weekend.

Thank you for pointing me over here Angus Clydesdale!!

I've just blogged about my sunflower exploits, never grown them before! I'm a wee bit excited!



Mine went outside yesterday, and have already seen off a thunder storm and a hail shower šŸ˜¬
