    Caterpillars?
    I have three sunflowers in the garden but as I'm a complete noob when it comes to gardening, I'm not sure when they're going to bloom into a flower.
    They're just tall stems with green leaves at the mo!

    No sign of any Caterpillars, I've only 1 left out of 5, think it might be leaf miner, but the big half round bites look as if a bird bit them.
