SUNFLOWER CHALLENGE 2023: WEEK 8 - Staking

Your sunflowers are probably getting quite tall and you may have already started staking them.

When they’re outside, they will need a more robust stake like bamboo. Danny Clarke and sunflower expert Fran Lawton will show you which stakes they recommend and the best way to attach your stake to your sunflower.

Did you know?

Sunflowers in pots will need more staking than sunflowers in the ground because their roots have less space to ground them!
