The birds will thank for keeping them :-)
Our bird feeder has acted as a sunflower germination facility.
To keep squirrels away from the feeder, we switched from sunflower to safflower. It works, but will safflowers grow?
We are having a sunflower competition here, they are up to the heady height of 6 ins.....sun being the key word here. On the other hand the ducks are happy!
The ducks would love our weather. It's so soggy out there I got my tractor stuck in mud today and I couldn't get it out. Ugh!
NHW: You're right, wild sunflowers translate into more seed.
Tomasso: I don't know about safflowers, must research. But flange, aka bottom of a 5 gall. bucket, keeps squigs off bird-feeder :)
Thud: Erm, England and sunflowers...doesn't really go together!
Tomasso: Nice and dry in Cali :)
Vinogirl:
I had to have someone bring his tractor to help get mine out of the ruts. It's a mess out there.
Was going to develop a new garden spot and needed topsoil, but I can't get a truck in the spot because of standing water.
The clay soil around here is a water retention system!
Tomasso: Lovely!
So when can we expect you in Cali?
