If you have a desire for a row of towering sunflowers or a perfect vase that screams for bouquets then get those sunflowers planted today! Sunflowers are an easy care plant that offers colour and seeds for the birds. They prefer full sun, well-drained soil, and tons of compost. It takes a lot of energy to grow from seed to flower to seed in one season! Look for starter plants or seeds now!
Remember to cut your bouquets early in the morning, when flowers are 50% open!
