Helianthus annuus 'Russian Giant'

HAMMERHEAD WORMS HAVE PLAGUED MY GARDEN

Look at the difference in size from the ones that get sun all day and the ones that have shade a couple hours in the morning!

All sunflowers come from US. A russian collected seeds and took them back to russia and created giant sunflowers

Nice to know. Interesting fact. Thank you for that info.

I have a few growing myself

How are yours doing?

#helpmyplant this is growing fast.

3 weeks old. Same spot as last photo. Look at the first one shoot right out of the picture!

Did you sow these straight in the ground?

Yes

they look great!

Thank you

About 2 weeks old.

@L2thaJ love how you've put that along a border. Will make a lovely screen! How quickly do they grow?

@mrsmitch Thank you! It's going to be our privacy fence for a few months. The seed pack said they would produce 100 seeds in 100 days. My mother planet some 3 weeks before me and here are always 2-3 feet tall!

@L2thaJ Whoa! I may have to try a pack o'those darlings. 🤗

Sprouts in only 2 days!

Planted and waiting for sprouts!
