2023 - What I did today

Valentine sunflowers are a bit slim, but that's why I like them. I grew them for the first time last year and left them alone to do their thing and loved that they didn't need any staking and were skinny enough to grow amongst the sweetcorn and squash. They also flowered right through until late autumn for me.

Think of them more like a verbena bonariensis, happily bobbing above your other plants.
