Welcome to the thoughts and photos of FLYDDW. Texas, New Jersey, and Arizona living.

Ok, so you may have seen the sunflower pictures. Well, there are only two left now, and they are bent over - full of seeds. But, they don't quite look like seeds yet, and I am afraid of cutting them down only to find that I should have left them grow.

So, I look on the internet (wonderful thing that it is ;-) )

I found this: http://www.essortment.com/home/homegardeningg_svtp.htm

It says that some things that I can confirm:
- Sunflowers give a lot of bang for very little work
- Some varieties grow from seed to twelve feet in a single growing season
- They can grow as much as a foot a day
- Sunflowers give off a chemical that inhibits the growth of other plants.

Hopefully after reading a bit more, I'll find out what to do to get seeds.

Wish me luck!
