On the 11th July, I planted some sunflowers. Here’s how they did.

Ok, so some have been eaten a bit, and the tallest one is only about 4ft tall. They’re not going to win any prizes.

But, considering all I did was stick a couple of seeds in a plastic waste paper bin I got from Ikea, the extreme winds we’ve had (they’ve fallen over many times), several periods of torrential rain, they’re not bad.
