Plant 'em in the pipes, one seed each, stand the pipe in the sun and water it. They can stay in there for a month. At least you will have two going. use two different color seeds, I think the bigger, lighter color would be Yellow sunflowers and the darker seeds are Orange sunflowers..

Mike......be sure to cut open the tape on the bottom so water leaks out. Floaters should be OK, my daughter is a pro at re-setting seeds!

Here it is Joe! This is my best one. Looks good in my back yard and I enjoy it. Got a smaller variety in the greenhouse if you can find it.

I have a confession, my first planting from Joe was about 12 seeds with two tube plants. They all were about 1 1/2 feet tall, we had a monster storm with hail and all the fixings. One survived. I babied that one plant it was about as tall as me 6 foot and about to open up the flower and we had a major wind storm, blew the darn thing over. I tried to replant it but the roots where just to far gone....so I am a non sunflower poster. Will try again next year though. Kaden thought it was pretty neat!
