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!
