As yesterday was Earth Day, we planted our Sunflower seeds. Some were arranged nicely in pots to get them started and some were chucked into the dirt and see how they do!
We are growing ‘mammoth’ sunflowers this year to see how tall we can get them. Mr Y is having a race with Grandma and Grandad who also have ‘mammoth’ sunflowers to grow across the pond in England. Seeds have all been planted at around the same time, so let the races begin! Grow sunflowers grow!
How tall will they get I wonder? Rest assured I will keep you updated on the sunflower growings, photos and measurements, no details spared. Betcha can’t wait! We only planted them yesterday and I am already looking out for sprouts…
Are you racing sunflowers? You should!

What a lovely idea! Looking forward to updates!
Grandma usually wins! I hope some of them grow, or this could be a very short series of posts.
such a great idea! i think i may have to join in on your sunflower race! do i get a handicap for starting a few days late?? flick x
Of course, let’s race! x
Oh I just love those giant sunflowers! Can’t wait to see!
Ha ha, I am going to look a right fool if they don’t grow!
