GW Sunflower Trial

(1/4) > >>

Gardengirl:
Anyone else having a go at the GW Sunflower Trial. I have applied for the Infrared F1 which should grow to 6ft.  Hope I am lucky enough to receive free seeds.  If not will have to look in the nurseries.

i've applied for florenza - i think 4-5ft is a lovely height for a sunflower...

Not sure what the great sunflower trial is, as fell asleep last night trying to watch Gardeners World!?

Have bought loads of different sunflower seeds to plant again this year on lottie, and grew a row of 8ft giant sunflowers last year which turned out ab fab! Couldn't believe how strong the stems were, as tough as telegraph poles?

Gardengirl:
Markymark - it's Gardeners World sunflower trial.  They did a trial of sweet peas last year.  It is just to test out different species of sunflowers.  You can apply for a free packet of seed by going to the BBC Gardening site and selecting Gardeners World if you want to join in.

Sent away for Florenza too, lovely and unusual colours.  Look out for the  Lottie4all Sunflower growing competition thread coming up.  :) busy_lizzie
