A green-fingered dad whose four-year-old son asked him to grow a sunflower "as tall as the house" has ended up with a 20-foot high monster plant which almost dwarves his semi. Douglas Smith, 42, is forced to use a ladder to tend to the lofty giant, which he first planted at the end of March and tended during lockdown. But Douglas, dad of four-year-old son Stellan, could not have guessed that his gardening project would creep all the way up to reach the apex of the roof of his house. The huge sunflower now stands at 20 foot from the roots to the base of the petals - or just over 21 foot, when measured over the curve from where the flower has drooped downwards under its own weight.
