Propagation Month, Day 22: Direct-Seeding Sunflowers

What better way is there to celebrate Earth Day than sowing sunflowers? I had these seeds left over from a couple years ago--hopefully, they're still viable. If they are, I'll have, after thinning, maybe a half-dozen yellow Mammoth sunflowers (8-10') and maybe a full dozen of these reddish-brown Velvet Queens (about 5').
