Gosh, Louise, I didn't know you'd never seen a maypop. There are many tropical, non-hardy types that you might like to consider for FL, but mine are hardy. I'd be glad to send you root cuttings. Here is a photo of the fruit. My maypops are the 'incarnata' variety. Some folks turn their nose up at these because they are wild and not exotic cultivars. I ate one today and it was delish!

The sunflowers are helianthus and there are lots of regional varieties. They just do their own thing. I wake up in the morning and look out the window to the view. Too much to do to have high maintenance plants.
