Sunflowers – small but growing

Yes, it’s the middle of August. My sunflowers still haven’t flowered, in fact they’re only just coming into proper growth!

That’s what happens when you plant them late I guess! They are also a dwarf variety as, living in a flat, we don’t have any room for full sized giants.

Ms Mars variety should give us some pretty pinky flowers.
