Does anyone have experience of growing large sunflowers in containers
versus in
the soil. Our soil is heavy clay and I wonderd if they would do better in
containers. Any experience?

Hi,
We plant them most years in pots - keep repotting up to a 12" pot -
they'll grow to 6 - 8 ft or so - no probs. I'm in Aberdeen by the way, so
the weather isn't tropical! I still have to water them, though, even in
Aberdeen!
