Thought you had to plant Peredovik Black Sunflower to get food plot.

I'm wanting something that reseeds itself naturally. Plus, I think the dove like them better, just observational.

I had a friend that had a ranch between Brownwood and Brady. He wanted to plant native sunflowers. The only place he could find them was a feed store in Breckinridge. This was years ago.

I believe Turner ships. You only need about 3-5# per acre.

I have been told natives don't do well in sandy soil. Anyone have input on that?
