Water sunflowers daily
Sunflowers come from North and Central America and therefore like it warm and sunny. However, this also means that the soil dries out quickly, especially in summer.

Water your sunflowers every morning if possible, or at least once a day. On very hot summer days, you usually even have to give them fresh water twice.
