First time taking care of sunflowers here! I just got this pot of sunflowers about two weeks ago and they were really pretty and fine 🥹
Left it out on my balcony and they started to look all droopy like this since a week ago 😭
Are they overwatered or underwatered? Or is it too much sun? (I’m in Singapore, it’s usually about 30°C around here) What am I doing wrong?
I've painted a lot of other flowers, but this is my first time painting these. ☺️🌻 This is 16 x 16 in. on upcycled canvas. I mix up all of my own paint, combining super heavy gel medium with heavy body acrylics to get that texture.

Hi! This is my first time growing sunflowers and I have just been doing it for fun and experimenting with some seeds I was gifted. I honestly didn’t think they would even grow at all because my soil is not good at all, but out of the 8 I planted 2 flowered! These are American giants. I’m not sure what to do from here as one of them is starting to really wilt now. Do I cut the heads off at a certain point or keep them on? Do I keep watering after they die? If it’s possible I would love for them to come back on their own. Some tips would be greatly appreciated! Thank you
How it’s going this year - I planted some specialty sunflower seeds from Sunflower Steve and unfortunately, a critter dug them all up.
Second pic is a standard sunflower from last year. I had to keep this one on my deck with a collar of wire around the planter so little animals kept the seedlings alone.
Even though they're not the real thing, this display of sunflowers brighten my day 😍
Looks like it’s gonna have 7-9 blooms.
This was our tallest yet. My wife saves the seeds and has a bunch germinating now to plant when the weather gets good. Anyone else see bees sleeping or getting drunk and staying a bit longer than usual?
Growing some Mongolian Giants and this little dude came up with true leaves already. All of them just broke the top of the soil last night and you could see the other two don't have leaves yet. I have not seen this on sunflowers before, is this a sign it's going to be a real healthy big one?
I watered it and put it in a big pot. Put it in front of the house for sunlight. Idk what I’m doing wrong 😞 my plants are always dying. I’d really like to save it if it’s not too late. It’s 23 degrees outside and around 10 degrees at night.
One is facing the sun, the other is completely ignoring it.
