Hi, my DD brought a plant home from school a couple of weeks ago, she can't remember what it is though, anyone able to help? It's grown a lot!

Sunflower?

I was going to say sunflower

Ah, lovely thanks, we've never grown sunflowers so I had no idea! :)

Anywhere you can plant it outside? It really needs to be in the ground. It's already getting etiolated - definitely not a plant for a small pot on a windowsill.

Yes, I'll plant it later today :)

yes, it's a sunflower

put it outside. either in the soil, or. if that's not possible a bucket size container.

it needs a sunny spot and regular plant food.

if you don't have plant food, they like the dregs of wine/beer/juice.
