It's hard to tell, as no-one included the photo of their username and we don't have many measurements :LOL: .

It looks like @Fionnuala has the tallest, I think @GreenJR has the biggest bloom and @DrMike27 has the most charismatic in post #27!

Well done guys :).

Sunflowers are the happiest plant I know. Don't forget to plant them next year. The seed are high quality food for you and you chickens.

The seed catalogue which arrived today advertises "American Giant F1, grows to 5 meters, sturdy stem needs no support.". A row of them might make good bean poles for next year :)
