Hi, hope you can help! My little ones sun-flower we were growing has some how had the head chopped off. It wasnt flowering yet, but it been chopped just below all the leaves at the top.
That's a shame Lorzy, it's always a good idea to plant more than one if there's room...anyway, too late for that this year but depending on which variety it is tyour plant will hopefully sprout side shoots & produce some more flowers. Might be a good idea to stake it in case we have any high winds...it always seems to happen just when the flowers are at their best!
The sunflower my grand-daughter was growing snapped off at the top, we just left it and it grew and divided into 2 stems and now each has a flower almost open, so fingers crossed!
