Container growing Sunflower — a practical guide from experience

I don't have a garden so a wildflower meadow replacing lawn areas is my only option for Sunflower. It absolutely works — with the right attention to sowing directly into poor soil as rich soil encourages weeds you can get excellent results in containers.

exceptional wildlife value for bees, butterflies, and hoverflies is fully achievable even in a pot. early spring bulbs and annual seedling germination is just as impressive in a container as it would be in the ground, possibly more so because the plant is at closer viewing distance. The main issue to watch in containers: rabbits and slugs targeting young seedlings. Happens faster than in the ground. Highly recommend for balcony and patio gardeners.
