Have you tried growing sunflowers before? Which varieties are your favorite?
Thanks for taking us all along on your Sunflower journey. Amazing. Loved it. Makes me want to plant more sunflowers. Great Job!
Just started some from the grocery store a couple months back, put them in the ground so now I'm just waiting🌻🌱🌻🌱🌻. Was excited to see this vid bc they've really grown on me, initially just grabbed for the critters lol❤. Use to not like them that much but their one of my grandma's favorites.
this was a lovely video, thank you! my favorite sunflowers are the black magic and the cherry rose, and they go well together aswell
I have to buy the moulin rouge now!!
Autumn Beauty is becoming a favorite of mine. I've grown them is raised beds and containers too. 🌻❤
My dad grew sunflowers and sold them to local flower shops. I have framed photos of his sunflowers . He died in 2009 and we weren’t very close. He was difficult to get close to. Every time I see those pictures I think of him.
Okay. I absolutely LOVE your video style.. taking footage over a significant length of time so that we can SEE the different growing stages. Please keep it up! I really really appreciate it!
- many thanks, from a curbside gardener
Nice video. I appreciate that you actually put in the effort to document what you grow and tell us how it's doing at various stages throughout the life cycle. I know it takes way more time and effort to make videos in this style but it really stands out among the hundreds of 1-2 minute long videos of flowers all over UA-cam where they barely explain anything and just go "Here's this lavender. It smells nice. It's great!", the end. I'm one of those people who actually wants to know everything there is to know about the varieties of flowers I am interested in growing and your channel delivers on that.
Really appreciate the kind words!
I WANT TO TOUCH THE GOLDEY HONEY BEAR SUNFLOWERS SO BAD! The moulin Rouge was my favorite!
I read this in your voice but the first part yelling fast lol 😂.
Yes! They’re so incredibly soft. You need this tactile experience!
10:30 I know its been months since this video but I thought I'd just tell you (unless somebody has already) that this type of sunflower is called a Fire Catcher Sunflower. I just got some seeds for it today!
You are the Bob Ross of gardening.... Very much appreciate finding you.
I’ve been growing them for about 20 years.Love sunflowers of all varieties. A wonderful video. Thanks.
“Here I am petting the leaves, apparently” 😂
I love the unique remarks he throws in here and there.
The finches LOVE the Sunflower seeds and hang upside down to get to them! What a delight to grow many varieties over the years and watch the bees, birds and butterflies who like the Mexican sunflowers!! 🌻🌻🌻 Thank you so much for this video! Love it! ❤🌻
Oh my god, his little pictures with the mammoth sunflowers 🥺 freaking adorable!! And I love that you pet your flowers. You’ve earned a new subscriber 💞
Thank god!!! I knew I was weird but in a good way, because I pet flowers and other random stuff while talking to it lol. And I give names to them. Like if I'm walking down the street and see a "squirrel, bird, grasshopper" etc etc I give them names like I know them 😂😂. I'll be like "aye tony what's up bro, hows the family, take it easy, I'll see you later bro" 😂😂🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️
The Moulin Rouge is my favorite, wooooow what a nice plant! Greetings from Soutwest Germany 🥦
Honestly one of the best if not the best videos showing different sunflower varieties. Thank you for putting this video together
planted sunflowers for the first time and now one of them has a bud! cant wait for it to bloom and reveal its beauty!!
I’m getting ready to grow sunflowers this summer, and I’m
Excited for my teen daughter and her bestie next door to harvest the seeds! This was a great video, well done!
16:08 is when the seed are being harvested
God’s creation is beautiful
A work colleague was telling me about her red sunflowers ? I didn’t even know you could get red sunflowers . So I bought some seeds and grew them in the biggest rectangle pot I could find 👍🏻 they are lovely .
I'm growing sunflowers for the first time this year. This was fun to watch and makes me so excited to direct sow them!
I love your prom photos! 😂🌻
It's coming into winter here and trying to figure out what to do with my sunflowers...the autumn wind is getting to them. Your video really helped, thank you.
From one sunflower grower to another, thank you for this video and I absolutely enjoyed it! I definitely subscribed! I live in Vermont, so there's only one time of year I can plant my sunflowers, but I look forward to it every year. I'm currently growing many different varieties right now. I also have to say, my favorite part (aside from enjoying their beauty and relishing in the satisfaction of growing them to their full potential) is harvesting them!! Cleaning them off and then taking the seeds out is so satisfying!! 🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻💛
Oh my goodness, your voice is so calming . I could learn about sunflowers all day long! Thank you for such an informative and relaxing video - exactly the gardening vibe. 👌🏻🌻😊
Fun fact about sunflower stems. They can be used as kindling after they are harvested or dried in fall here in Zone 5.
Yep. Excellent for kindling.
Great video! So fun to watch and see all the varieties you planted.
Red wiggler worms and night crawlers help ALOT in the garden
Wow.. I can't imagine how long it took you to complete this video. Love all the sunflowers! The mammoth ones are my favourite.
They are the ones Van Gogh painted!!!!!
Small black seeds great for many birds
Bust your clay base soil with giant sunflower and leave the roots in as cover crops plant your tomatoes in the roots the following season .( that's your compose next season)
Thanks
Absolutely love your video. Inspired me to I start collecting and planting sunflowers just last week ! Excited to see how they bloom
I think the sunflower that you couldn’t identify might be an autumn beauty because of the red ring around the inside of the petals
if sunflowers are grown in cooler climates they tend to be thicker and taller in the end. The slow growth of cool days tend to make the plant grow their roots as well. When you plant them in hot weather they are quick to grow and leggy as well. In my 9b zone they overwinter very nicely and they grow huge.
I live in Tucson and they can grow just about year round if you protect them in the winter.
I planted the Mammoth Grey Striped
Hopi Black Dye, Chocolate Cherry, Red Sun, Lemon Queen, Titan, Autumn Beauty.
I'm so overwhelmed with emotions; I freaking love this video!!! 😭😭😭❤🌻❤🌻
Omg yay !!!!!!!!!! It’s 10:30pm and you’re right, we have waited long enough for this lol. Let me get cozy for this.
I am lucky to have found your channel. Please don’t stop creating!
They're my favorite , I never miss a summer with out them, i try different ones and seem to do best with the mammoth or giant ones
Good work Well done Young Man.
My favorite is chocolate sunflower and teddy bear.😍
OW MY GOD, what a cute fluffy caterpillar in the end!!! Can you do a video about seeds, from 'wild' flowers? How some look like, when to pluck and how to dry them?
Removing the flourettes and seeds are the most satisfying part of growing them if ur into stimming :)))
They are AUTUMN BEAUTY marigolds I think.
10:30 There are a number of Sunflower hybrid varieties that can produce this color pattern at that plant height.
Helios Flame, Ring of Fire, Firecracker, Ruby Eclipse, etc...
Florist’s Sunny Bouquet does extremely well for us in containers, here in Santa Fe, NM.
You guys should grow furry sunflowers from seeds and they are perennials
i love this video. i love the cinematography and the style, it’s very chill. I’ve been looking for a video about different sunflower varieties and I finally found one :)
this video for me is like therapeutic.... thank you.
Thanks for this magical video! I’m growing some varieties this summer. Just planted some seedlings in the ground last week. I hope they will be as beautiful as yours!😊💖🌼🙌🐝👋
You have a great voice! And thanks for the wonderful video!
great video! I loved watching
Fantastic! I'm going to plant titans and a short variety this year.
16:56 the way the petals were darker and the seeds underneath were whiter points to pest damage. When that happens to me, that means little inchworms or caterpillars got to the flower head. I’ve often found them when I collected seeds. It just means you left the flower out too long and the pests started getting to the seeds
Awesome video! I normally keep the roots n the ground, just because it's great for getting awesome soil. also, the roots have awesome health benefits for cholesterol levels, supporting bone health, detoxification, and skin health..
Only just discovered you so a little late to the party. You have an awesome voice - have you thought about narrating books (especially children's books)? Gorgeous channel by the way. Currently binge watching from the Scottish Highlands. I grew up watching Monty Don and Sarah Raven who to me are the pinnacle of imparting of stuff garden related. You are right up there with them (and even slightly ahead).
This very inspiring. I already forget how much i love Sunflowers. Im reminded.
The red ones are my favorite
So thorough! I enjoyed seeing all of these beautiful varieties! Thank you for sharing !
I have to grow sunflowers and it’s a competition from work. Largest wins £100. So far they’re just small leafy babies in pots
In addition to the helpful information and tips for growing sunflowers, this video is very well filmed. Cinematography, music, and voice over are noted. Especially like the overly dramatic flicking of the seed packets. 🤣Wish it was spring all over again to try some of these varieties.
Haha is your season already wrapping up? You can get these to bloom in about 60-80 days most of the time. Thank you for the compliments - always appreciated. 🙏
Now I have to grow some sunflowers to pet them! Just enjoy your videos so much!
Golden prominence
wow lots of sun flower, new support stay con
I enjoyed listening to your video. It was easy to understand thankyou
I really enjoyed this content! Thank you!
Absolutely superbly done! Your dedication is endearing.
Excellent video and just the information I was looking for. A true quality video. New fan of the channel and I look forward to watching your old videos. 💖💖 What type of fury bug is that at the end of the video? Amazing! Thanks again for the excellent video.
Beautiful, great video.
A little late to the party but at 10:44 I think that is an Evening Sun variety. I grow these variants because I just love the colors! Thanks for helping relieve some stress during this crazy time.
Those moulin rouges were stunning!!! Rubbing those teeny flowers off is my favourite part!!! 🤗🤗
I usually get awesome harvests of seed, but once I had a massive flower head and all the seeds looked normal, nice and plump and black, but they were all empty 🤔 I have no idea why, my little nephew discovered it by squeezing the seed and he told me they “crushed” on closer inspection they were all empty, I pulled one apart and they were literally like an empty egg shell and I still can’t work out how the seeds “grew” 🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️
love sunflowers..😊
10:17 so cute
great sunflower video, thank you for creating it
Great video. I liked the pictures of you sitting with your work. Those scarlet one look like little solar eclipses.
Great video! So much time dedicated to one video! Thank you Sir :)
I have been planting sunflowers for about 20 years and I just love them. Recently I bought a house along the shores of Lake Erie in Canada. Last year the squirrels stole every single bloom the day it opened. Not to be discouraged I will attempt again this year perhaps in many different areas in my yard.
Is there any aroma? I lived on a ranch as a kid and wild sunflowers would grow for miles. It was not only beautiful to see but to smell.
What a soothing video! Sunflowers are such a lovely flower.
So pretty and relaxing video 😌
Loved it al!! Pretty sunflowers🌻
great video and narration!
You have such a lovely energy! I absolutely LOVE sunflowers and am getting so excited to plant them coming into spring down here in Australia. Thank you for your gorgeous videos 💕
Great video ! , somthing that might be good to know is , what kind of butterflies use the sunflower as a host plant as well as for pollinating..happy gardening
Thanks, I learned a lot!
I planted my moulin rouge variety in a small raised bed outside my window. The plants currently stand at a little over a foot tall. Cannot wait till they bloom.
ahhhh I love this video so much. Currently growing some store bought sunflower seeds right now and i'm hoping they'll thrive.
I love sunflowers. I over soaked mine and thought they went off and threw them in the compost few day later they sprouted I then transplanted them into my garden last month now they are about to flower and they are all taller than me😂🤣🤣🤣they are great
Love your video!!! It was so calming and enjoyable to watch and I also learned a lot! Gardening is my stress relief, so it was really nice to watch a video where your voice and the music was really relaxing. I'm gonna check out the rest of your videos
These are absolutely beautiful
This is my first year growing sunflowers. I appreciate the info about saving the seeds to plant next year!
Excellent video. Especially love the time span! Probably my favourite sunflower video ever!
this is my favorite sunflower video on UA-cam!!! 6 months ago I was obsessively searching and couldn't find anything that grabbed my attention. Gorgeous videos, thank you for sharing 🌻
You are so welcome!
Such an informative video… thank you for sharing!
Great video thanks for sharing
Excellent video with all the stages of growth and varieties! 2nd year we're growing great sunflowers from our bird seed! All about the same height but different varieties. I think the fuzzy caterpillar at the end was a pale tussock moth?
Awesome video
So beautiful 🌻 luv them all.
Have you ever tried sautéing immature sunflower heads ? Their really delicious and something unusual.
Just subbed to your channel. You're a joy to watch!!! 💚💚💚💚
I love your videos! You are amazing! Thank you for sharing.
loved your video
This was super helpful!! Thank you!!
Thanks for showing the root system! It helps to determine what containers and or depth of plot is required for plants. And surprisingly it the sunflower didnt need as much soil as I had initially thought! Definitely cant be grown in a basic planter trough, but a gallon size container would be perfect! Will try next year.
I Love 🌻 So Much I’m Growing Them Every Year For Now On 💯🖤🌻
