I was a coward and didn`t put my name down for the competition but I thought I`d show my best sunflower so far. I`m six feet three and my flower is just around the 9 feet mark. No head yet though.

This one is specially for "lawrie28". Just topped 9ft 10ins and flower head forming - but no table in sight. I only wanted 4/6ft sunflowers round my bird bath!http://s1231.photobucket.com/albums/ee513/weedoff/?action=view¤t=P1010685.jpg0

9'10"?

I'm about 5" behind you. Flower head starting to form too. I really want to get to 10' though.
And these are my multi-headed ones, which are coming along nicely. I think some of these might get to about 20 heads:

I've finally got 1 sunflower at around 7' and it's still growing, all the others flowered at around 5-6'
You've got more multi heads than me MBE, but I have the smallest ones I think.
Will get my camera back off DS tomorrow and post pics
