Hi,
My sunflowers (I didn't plan them, the bird feeder flew in winter and I guess it landed in my garden) have curling leaves. Not all the sunflowers, but some of them. Is it a watering issue? or a pest or a fungus)

Expert Response
Michelle,
If you uncurl the leaves, can you see anything inside? If not I'm inclined to say that perhaps there is some climate shock from our cool and wet spring/early summer into our dramatic heat. Have you been watering a couple times a week?
Any root disturbance?
