Oooh err, I'll have to look to see if I've got any tall sunflower seeds, if I have, I'm in, if they germinate, they'll be way out of date.

I'll hang fire on my entry until I get past the seedling stage if you don't mind.
Intend to sow mine in the greenhouse but I know the little critters get in there as well so will need to chop a bit of fleece off to cover pot from those damm meeces and slugs!

I've been digging out my sunflower seed hoard! How embarrassing.
The tallest ones (according to the blurb) are Russian Giant, Mongolian Giant, Titan & Kong which is multi-headed. Most of my seeds are out of date or nameless ones that I've been given at seed swaps. It'll be pot luck if any giant sunflowers grow!
A couple of years ago I scattered sunflower seeds where I wanted a patch of sunflowers. The following day, all the seeds had been eaten - so I won't be doing that again!
