SUNFLOWER CHALLENGE 2023: WEEK 12 - Harvesting

Your sunflowers are still probably very young and may not even have flowered yet. So enjoy them whilst while they’re still full of life!

It’s always good to be prepared, so take notes on what Danny Clarke and Fran Lawton advise for when your sunflower comes to the end of its life. Hint: it includes a creating refuge for your favourite furry insect!
