But there are a lot of shorter types too. I think once it flowers, it's done with vertical growth, so you don't have to worry about the pot tipping. I have a half dozen or so of the short sunflowers growing around my birdfeeder. They look almost exactly like Anthony's. And a few doors down is a neighbor who often grows the goliath version that hits 12 - 14 feet tall. They tower over the fence with blooms 2 feet across. THOSE would probably tip your pots :-) “I know from growing up in Ohio that these can grow five or six feet tall”

So educational and fun for kids. Everything that they do in Japan (or what I know of) seems perfect in every way. There is no worry to find watering pitcher or growth chart..it's all in one place.
