Hey Les
That is an awesome sunflower, what do you call that kind, I was told that the great big flowers like that are called "Vikings"?

Jen, Unfortunately I threw out the package after I planted the seeds. If you would like some seeds, I would be happy to send you some. We will have lots of them to share if anyone else on here wants some.

Jen....thanks for the milkweed offer but I have lots of it already growing around here. Actually started a small bed in the corner of my yard. I am going to harvest seed from my butterfly milkweed, it has a orange flower that the honey bees actually go nuts for. I can send you some of those too if you would like or anybody else who would like some.

Ooooooo I love those, as long as they are drought tolerant, I'll take some of those seeds
My bees need all the help they can get over here in the dust bowl
