One of the sunflowers fell over in a storm but look at the other!

After losing some backyard privacy last summer when trees came down in a tornado I planted an area with multi-head sunflowers and various corn kernels (that had sprouted in wet ears downed by the storm in the field) by just pushing seeds down into unimproved soil and dead lawn.
The result? Besides being a great privacy screen it was the best corn and sunflowers I've grown to date! I have no idea why the allopathic properties didn't kick in.

Maybe because the corn already had sprouted they had a head start?

Maybe they thought you've had enough trouble of late and deserved a break.
