One thing I would like my grand-daughter to learn from me is the gardening bug. This is one of her projects - started way back in early spring. The seeds came from some doodad she bought - free seeds were part of the deal. Whilst I recognised them as sunflower seeds, I had no idea they were of such a tall variety. She thinks she is the bees knees now - especially since I grew dwarf sunflowers at my own place. "Mine are MUCH bigger Papa!"

Well done.
If I send you some seeds, do you think that you could get her to grow them for me?

Good stuff. Keep her keen during the winter by applying silver foil to a cupboard walls and run a heat lamp in there for the plants.

Remember to tell her that if she wakes up and the sunflower goes right up into the sky - leave the chooks alone!

That's a proper sunflower... check if the seeds are edible as can then be dried and fed to the birds over winter, unless Grandad eats then first!
When I was at primary school we grew sweet peas - another fun plant to grow.

She also helped me grow strawberries and blueberries - her favourites. Oh and she helped me with the transplanting of the tomatoes too. And we visit the city gardens here often. So she has plenty exposure to growing stuff.

Never too young to learn the joy of gardening and the value of gardens...
Well done both of you...
