Growing Sunflowers in Pots

picture of growing sunflowers in a planter

If you don't have much time or don't have a green thumb try growing Sunflowers. They area very easy to grow and fast growing. This one is in an old cast iron pot on my porch. They come in a large variety of colors. I purchased my seeds from ebay. I also put in some broken pieces of vintage pottery for drainage and color.

I love to grow sunflowers anywhere I can but I had no idea you could grow them in a pot....what a great idea.

How big does the pot need to be?......Michelle

I agree that sunflowers brighten any flower bed. I grow them every year in my garden. I think that the Velvet Queen's are beautiful.

Here is a sample of one of mine.
