Hey I was once tried to plant sunflower but unfortunately it is not successful I think the climate is one of the main reason why it didn’t grow.

I have a few that have taken off..not sure what will happen with them. I’ve got to plant the rest of my seeds soon. After planting in the hard ground, I plan to do some container gardening.
