Sunflowers dying fast!
I just got some new flowers from Stater Brothers about maybe five days ago and they’re dying very fast. They have direct sunlight plenty of water. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong.

It could be any number of things. @Superman asked about drainage because they should really be in a pot with drainage holes. They also need a LOT of direct sun (hence the name lol), I'm talking 6+ hours. It's also possible they're too crowded & there aren't enough nutrients to sustain all of them (overcrowding pots is a very common practice at commercial nurseries).
Then again, it might not be any of those things. Sunflowers are annuals, so it's possible they're just nearing the end of their lifecycle. If that's the case, you can collect the seeds & use them to plant your own harvest of sunflowers next season 🌻🥰

@Jesus4life not sure sorry but maybe repot them into a pot with drainage 😞
