Hunh, i didnt know.

we had a field or two of big sunflowers over the years here in my city as well. They’re worth visiting because they’re so cheery. And then we have a volunteer clumps at Highway access and entrances, those get no care at all and seem to do OK. But they’re not the big Russian sunflowers, they seed themselves so they break down to a species pretty quickly.
