I love what you're doing. Obviously you don't live in the desert. LOL Here in the Phoenix metro area growing things has a lot of challenges. But I have occasionally been successful at growing sunflowers of various kinds. I love them. I wish I could get milkweed to grow here. I did plant dandelion seeds a few years ago and now I have quite a few sprouting up around the yard. They are great for birds and my desert tortoises. I bet my neighbors aren't happy with them though. LOL
