This year is my first year growing sunflowers and I planted a whole variety of different kinds. About a third of the seeds I planted came up and are doing great! Most of my sunflowers respond heliotropically as you stated here, and have been blooming sporadically throughout the season. I love your idea about planting in rounds so they keep blooming through the fall (where I'm at they would probably be done by mid September). I did not do that this year, but probably will next year! Hoping to use seeds from this year's flowers to grow next year's :) Thanks for the good read and the insight!
