What I want to plant:
I want to plant sunflowers. If we buy regular sunflowers, they grow from 6 to 10 feet so I don't think height will be a hassle. We may have a problem with animals trying to eat the seeds out of the ground, not sure what we can do about that. They need to be planted about 2 feet or so apart. It takes 2-4 months for them to mature so it's not a whole lot of time. They need to be put in rich soil because other soils like sandy soil wouldn't be able to hold down the root growth. What's great about sunflowers is that we can just plant them out in the sun because they are sunflowers. They are also annual plants so they can grow in any season. We can try planting it with other annual plants like corn and beans. If you mean other flowers, we can plant Marigold with it too.
