I was just thinking, if someone has some seeds to trade that's fine.
This is what I need or want for next year:
Fish Pepper
Mexico Midget tomato
Bush Sugar Baby watermelon
California Wonder bell peppers
Sweet Banana pepper
Hot Jalapeno
Cayenne pepper
Anaheim pepper
Straight Eight cucumber
Any interestingly colored heirloom tomato varieties that I don't have.

It's been several years since I've grown a tall sunflower. I keep buying tall sunflower seeds thinking I'm GOING to grow one....but do I ever plant one? No. My garden always winds up full of pepper and tomato plants.
'Mammoth' sunflower is an heirloom variety and packet says height to 12 feet. Says seeds are edible and heads are huge.

12 ft tall sunflowers should have yellow flowers the size of car tires. Actual flowers in picture are no larger than flowers on 6 ft tall plants. I don't want them in my garden either. I think my son wants to plant sunflowers around all 3 sides of his patio. 40 years ago I planted climbing flowers around my patio trellis fence wire was 10 ft tall wow it was nice to set in there it was a forest of beautiful flowers. Door was covered with flowers too. I wish I had pictures of that. I wish I could remember what climbing flowers I planted? I remember seeing it on Crockets Victory garden I bought flowers and built it.

I do plant mammoth as the seeds are edible, if you get it before the birds do. Mine never get as tall as 12 ft. I have a shorter day, so mine only get to be about 8 ft tall and the head will be around 10-14 inches in diameter. They are fun to watch in the garden. They will always face the sun (east).
