As for my sunflowers, I’ve about 5 in one corner and they were a great success. They were very late bloomers (Mid September) and are still in bloom. What happens with them for the winter months? Do I cut them, Do they stay upright?

Finally, I read somewhere that is should weed feed and fertilise my grass at this time of year, is this correct?

I'll pop up a photograph of the roses later....
