Im Growing Mini Sunflowers this Year Chris 2 keep in pots :)

My experience has ben that if you keep the seed for next year you might get big sunflowers next time.

Hi Chris, me and Brooke have just sown some red ones in the greenhouse a couple of weeks ago they have germinated already! - ours are 'Claret' - hope they turn out as lovely as this one - beautiful! we are going to plant them either side of Brooks play house!

Mine were Claret too. The ones planted in full sun in the front garden were more deep red, and these others planted in partial shade in the back were more dark rust coloured. Soil also different in back garden. All were very nice and good germination..
