I think he bought a started plant. I dont think he planted it from seed.
It's likely a hybrid.

It's likely a hybrid.
It is possible they are regrowing from seeding. I believe it's perennial because it's growing from the same spot without a spread of multiple plants for the first few years. The plants were just getting larger.
I would also suggest staying away from watermelon unless u like watering everyday.
It's difficult to take those articles at face value because they are comparing without really considering hybrids. People generally replant hybrids because they don't know what they will get from hybrid seeds or the long term performance of a perennial hybrid. Generating new plants from old whether through seed or root is like a genetic lottery. Even heirlooms are unpredictable after a few years.OK@Banchan, your right
sunflowers can be a perennial(year to year) plant
but if they bloom first year they are likely not a perennial
Is My Sunflower An Annual Or A Perennial Sunflower
interesting...never seen a perennial myself
dangWell I'd say that hailstorm buggered the garden.
we usually get a early hailstorm to knock the buds off most of fruit trees...can ruin pear or apple trees...late hail is rare in oregon...we usually get the intense soaker thunderstorm rain
they will still be viable seeds IMOI think I pulled it too early. Seeds are much darker than the ones in the packet.
could grow a field with that pile of seeds
not worth the space usually
Yeah we usually get a spring storm that'll bigger blossoms. This one was pretty savage I dont see any recovering from this.
That is a pile of hail building up at base of down spouts

What are you amending your soil with?!?
This sunflower is going nuts.
Just compost. As you can see, the peppers beside it are runts.
There was 2, one broke off where I tied it down. If you look close you can see the stub and the clean break.
You should give up gardening and be a hand model. Those hands are too beautiful to touch dirt.Well I'd say that hailstorm buggered the garden.
arbor vida, boxwoods, onions/garlic, and two twotypes squash, one tomato, a lil pepper and a sunflower?...looks beautiful man
This sunflower is going nuts.
A couple other beds to the left along (lettuce and cucs) with a greenhouse (peppers, tomatoes and cucs). A herb garden in pots on the deck for easy access. Some blueberry bushes off to the side.
sounds great
home grown goods/spices are the best eating
