I used to spend a lot of time gardening.  One of my favorites past times was growing different types of sunflowers trying to get them as tall as possible.

This thread has come back to life.  

I enjoyed gardening.  It's peaceful, relaxing and therapeutic.

With the sunflowers, I spent a lot of time and effort.

First I planted seeds into small plant pots with compost with fertiliser in a garden shed.  

Then planted them outside. Regularly watered them when it was dry.  Often fertiliser in the water.  Used sticks to prop them up to prevent them breaking.

Here's one with my late mother.
