Sun Flower

Pinched the seed from a pack of Bird Seed I bought but the snails eat most of them Grrrr! So in the end it wasn't Bird Food but Snail Food LOL :o)

Hi Essex lady, I am growing lots of sunflower seedlings too from all the hulled seeds that get thrown off the feeders which are over bare soil. They don't usually germinate but all the rain has allowed them to sprout. No sunflowers though so far. Your flower is very pretty.

Hi Doric. Yes, the Sunflower was nice but you outta of seen the stem, flippin snails ruined it, I have had carrots, greens and all-sorts of things come up from bird seed in between our flag stones, think next year I will sow a big tub of them, just to see what comes up LOL.
I have bought some liquid slug killer, have you ever tried it, haven't used mine yet, but will do and will let you know how and if it was any good.
