Allotments 4 All

Well i suppose someone has to be first.Not a very impressive 5' 5" or 164cms new money.But Hey Ho i tried.

Looks good to me BB!  The first of many huh.

Shame the elephant stomped on the 18 footer though :'( But this one looks good! ;D

The thing is Doris the greenhouse sides are 20 ft tall  ;D ;D ;D

Hahahaha  Pete! ;D

You been peeping at my Greenhouse side Peter H ????? ;) ;)

Yep bb saw them when i was flying past the other month on the shed roof  ;D

Well just had a complaint from air traffic control, it looks as though i'm going to have to cut mine as they don't want an air crash  ;D ;D ;D .

Peter

Less bragging and more Photos Peter H ;) :D

Hi bb,tried to take some pics today but i nearly passed out with the altitude  ;D so i'm going to try to get some from the ground looking up, it might be safer but i'm not sure if you will see the tops of them  ;) , but will give it a go anyway  ;D ;D ;D .

Pete

Mine are still growing, you can just make them out between my dog, Skeela and the trees. There's a flower bud just starting, tho..

So excited!  Mine are the talk of the plot!  I can hardly reach the top now and they now have flwore buds showing!  Going to easily top 7 foot I think!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 ;D :D :o  'Fraid i'm going to have to send me Elephant down if you've got a seven footer EJ ::) ::) ::)

Can we have a prize for the smallest (Sunflower that is)My tallest of 4 is approx 2ft :o :o :o

Only one of mine is doing well - it's way taller than me and I'm 6'2" it looks like it's developing a flower now so I don't imagin it'll get much bigger. It's in a pot so I assume we measure from the soil level to the highest point ?

-B_B-

Well thats me knocked out of poll position mighty fast.

You were on a roll there for a while Budgie!  
BB yes I would imagine we shall all be measuring from soil to tip...........just hope my tape measure is long enough! :o

Right, Doris, come on, lets get yoour elephant over to Holland to go visit BB !!  Mind you, mine are now taller than my runner bean poles and they were 7 foot poles, so I guess 6 foot by the time they were stabbed in the ground.  Mine now have flower buds so maybe an inch or two more.  Will get some photos next week - have mum over to stay so will drag her to the allotment and she can take pics of me with my sunflowers.  :D

Budgie B sent her Elephant down to me, but it hasn't found me YET! Will send t towards Holland with a couple o peanuts when it gets here!

I didn't want that beautiful A4a Biggest Sunflower title anyway Doris :'( :'(Hope this is going to be an Annual event though so it's back to the drawing board for me.iIll bow out gracefully crying into me seed beds :'( :'( :'(
