Chooch got me started, and now I can't help it. I never realized how many different types of sunflowers there were. I grew the jumbo variety last year. They were HUGE, and I feed most of the seed to the birds.
Chooch's story intrigued me enough to start researching the different types. Wow!
I would like to add a few of these oddities to my garden, and would appreciate any seeds that you can spare. So if you have good cut-flower and/or large producing, and especially non-yellow versions, I'd love to trade or whatever.

I know most people probably all ready know this but. The black oil sunflower seeds that you buy to feed the birds are really cool to grow. All you need to do is save some of the seeds from the bag. I plant a bunch of them every year.

The Giant Sungold is really great looking. Sorry I don't have any seeds.

I have some non-yellow types (some gorgeous light yellow ones too)....email me with what you've got to trade and let's see what we can work out.
