Magnificant Monsters

The sunflowers I last grew, I grew in a large container outside. They grew more than twice the height of me. Their stalks were like the trunks of trees (well, not that big, but wider than fully grown bamboo stalks). Some of the flower heads were bigger than my face and oooh so heavy with seed! What an amazing experience to grow, shell, roast and eat my very own organically grown sunflower seeds!
