Sunflowers are fun. I have a nice backyard and I have planted Mammoth Sunflowers may a summer. These grow to 9 - 12 feet high and have one huge flower on top. They are majestic when planted in a row and are very easy to grow. If you have the room, message me and I can send you some of the seeds I have saved for this year.

Plant sunflowers when all danger of frost is past, about a quarter of an inch deep. Keep the soil moist but not wet, until they sprout. Sunflowers are easy to grow, but you have to watch out for the animals! Rabbits love the sprouts, birds and squirrels will eat the seed before it's dry, so if you want some for yourself, you'll have to cover them with netting.

Sunflowers are very easy, I usually get some growing under my birdfeeder, it plants itself. Just plant the seeds in full sun, water some and watch them grow.

Sunflowers are very easey to grow. I planted the seeds and I had some plants over 10 ft tall. You have to watch the birds because they love those seeds. Put a bird feeder out away from where you plant the seeds, that way they won't want to dig up your seeds.
