The tall square cat litter pails work great for sunflowers.  Half gallon mason jars for shorter stemmed ones.

Hi all,

 

Looking for some quick advice on something I’ve never done before: I’ve got a nice-looking row of a few varieties of sunflowers intended for cut flowers, but I’ve never taken them to a market before. Does anyone have experience to share on how to present and price them?

 

Thanks in advance,

Rob
