OTHER: Black Oil Sunflowers are grown for sunflower oil for cooking, & are "The" sunflower grown for wild bird seed. The seeds have a higher oil content, more meat for calories & fat, & are easier for birds to crack open than other types. Harvest the entire sunflower heads & present them to the birds that way, or collect the seeds for mixes & feeders. Of course they also make wonderful cut flowers!
