This morning I planted sunflower seeds in our new plot along the basketball court and the fence…the bed is a long triangle shape (pic below). I had some leftover Mammoth sunflower seeds so I planted them all along the side of the house, behind the rose bushes and some by the back sliding glass door. I planted Mammoth, Tangina, Chianti Hybrid, Cappuccino Hybrid, Teddy Bear, and Baby Bear in four rows. The Mammoth sunflower is in the back, closest to the fence. Then there is a row of Cappuccino, then a row of alternating Baby Bear and Chianti (23 planted) and a row of Teddy Bear and Tangina alternating (planted 19). In the small spots at both ends planted Baby Bear, as well as Baby Bear all along the split rail fence. (Baby Bear is Emily's favorite.) It’s going to be a amazing!
I also planted another row of gourmet lettuce in the container, another row of spinach in the container, and a long row of salad bowl red in front of the Roma tomatoes.
Ooo, I can't wait to see all your sunflowers!
