The preschool is buying heirloom sunflower seed in bulk. We’re going to make a ‘Sunflower House’.
@bacheloretteofscience THIS WORKS so well!
If you want to get super fancy, do a second ring on the outside of 4’ tall sunflowers then a third outer ring of the 1’ tall teddy bear sunflowers. If there are any gaps you can interplant with cosmos, amaranth and nasturtiums or (if there are huge gaps) gourds.
My mom used to do this for me in the backyard as a kid- it really works and I always loved it! Spent so many summer days having tea parties with teddy bears in my sunflower house.
