Sunflowers
I have 38 of these wonderful plants growing in my backyard ranging
in height from 3' to about 8'. Some are blooming and many are ready to. All seem to produce one just one flower, at the top of the stem. However I have one that appears to be contrary to what the rest of them do. This bad boy has 16 buds on it so far that appear like they'll become flowers. None of the other plants have this. One at the top is opening as of tonight but the rest are identical to it, just not open - yet. There are 6 of these are near the top where it has forked several times leaving the bud at the very end of each of the forks. The rest are at the very end of lower branches that already have huge leaves. Is it abnormal for a sunflower to produce more than 1 head? Zone 7, Albuquerque - variety is Mammoth |
