Garrison received sunflower seeds to plant from his kindergarten class at Sturgis Elementary in Sturgis, KY. He has tended to them for months watering and watching them grow. They are in a small pot, but he plans on moving them to the ground so they can get stronger and taller! Thanks for the great summer project for him!

Hi! I am June Bug. I received these from my preschool in Ruston, La. We planted them in our garden and one grew to be almost 6 feet tall. The bees love them!! Thank you for sharing them with our family.

I first planted them in a flower pot, then when they were big enough I replanted them in the ground. Watered them about every 2 days depending on the weather. 3rd grade.

Reagan received the sunflower seeds in her 4th grade class. She planted them in her mom and dad’s front flower bed, right with the gerber daisies. Several are blooming in beautiful Arlington, TN!

Silvia recycles, knows about compost, and reusing/ transforming old things in new stuff. Her sunflower barely survived the nightly buffet of the deer in our yard. Out of 5 it’s the last one. It got eaten once but came back. We had to guard it to help get it to bloom!

Cayton helped his big sister plant and care for her sunflower seeds. He waited patiently for them to bloom and finally on July 1st the first flower opened. He was so excited to show her!
