Didn't plant these guys, but I like 'em. So do the finches...and bees...and sometimes the squirrels will take a flower or two. This year they have stayed away, perhaps because this guy is so close to the doorway and walkway. We had about 10 sunflowers last year, so it is hard to believe that only two seeds made it. If you want any seeds from these popular plants, you will need to put a paper bag over the head at some point -least that's what I have heard.
My nephew and niece in Seattle recently fooled their dad by secretly planting a bunch of sunflowers around the garden. They popped up and stole all of the sun (what little there is in WA) from the veggies. Poor Toby! So...if you have kids, and you garden..,control your supply of sunflower seeds.
