Is this a too little pot for three sunflowers?


By now it seems like the plants are thriving and they look happy with light.

    Definitely, and might even be too small for one (depending on the specific variety). Ones I grow in the ground can get 5-6” around at the base and 6-8’ tall. Those root balls end up about 5 gallons in size.

    You can certainly grow a healthy plant if you maintain proper fertilizer and moisture, but it’ll be on the smaller end of sunflowers.

    They will grow to about 2 -3 ft tall and mature early

    I have some Russian mammoth sunflowers that I have in the ground and also in pots. The potted flowers are already going to seed and the inground sunflowers are still growing and towering at about 6 ft
