Chillin' In The Garden
Sunflower is one of those self-seeding plants so they can come up anywhere. I had 3 different types show up in my veggie garden this year and let them grow for the birds. One is a thick stalked single huge flower. The other is also thick stalked and branches at the top with mid to large sized flowers (about 5 flowers). The third is very branched starting near the bottom of the stalk and branches out as wide as the plant is tall which is close to five feet. The stalk and branches are thin and the flowers are small. We have several bird feeders and I think the birds must have dropped the seed in the garden. I was hoping I could catch some pictures of the chickadees eating the seed off the plant. No luck yet though.orloff said:Really! I never knew there was wild sunflowers.
