Thanks EJ - mine too have only just germinated and was worried I had sown them too late.  Complete newbie to sunflowers as growing for first time this year.  Ended up getting a mixed seed collection and now windowsills etc are overflowing with sunflower seedlings!  Well, have friends with gardens in need of brightening up - methinks sunflowers will make nice gifts!

Oh!  Hadn't thought of that Marianne.  Am also hoping to go to Gardener's World Live so might take some for the plant swap.  Suddenly having about 60 sunflower seedlings is not so bad  ;D
