Most of the ones I grew from seed and planted out as good strong flowers were eaten.

Thanks Julia, not sure why the photo is so fuzzy though! It looked ok on my photos on the computer.

Even though it's fuzzy, Shirley, it's still a nice picture of a beautiful Sunflower! I was able to "Like" your picture!

Thanks David, it is currently standing up to heavy rain and wind. I shall be surprised if it stays standing by the morning ... :o(

A winner against the odds Shirley!
My sunflowers are keeping their buds tightly closed against the rain, who can blame them!

Yes, exactly! We had a torrential downpour yesterday evening and some roads around Worthing and Chichester were flooded ... welcome to July in England!

Is it still standing? Were the wind & rain too much for it?

It IS still standing tall, and today the sun is beating down, hooray!

Good to know that, Shirley!

Tall and majestic too! Mine didn't emerge at all, Shirley...slugs perhaps.
I'll enjoy yours meanwhile..
