Unless you grow a dwarf type of sunflower, such as "Teddy bear" you would not grow them in pots. Most sunflowers grow tall, and become rather top-heavy. Sunflowers need lots of room to grow--including the roots, which need to spread out beneath the soil in order to anchor the plant. Even muli-stemmed sunflowers, whose individual flowers are fairly small (for a sunflower), get top-heavy because of the number of flowers on the stem. So, if you absolutely MUST grow one in a pot, select the shortest cultivar you can, and still put that in an over-sized pot. So, sunflowers grow better in the ground, but it is possible and challenging to grow them in pots.
