They look lovely Jerry; how tall does that variety grow, and how so you stop the snails devastating them? I rarely succeed with Sunflowers because of the slimeys! They get to about 5' tall. I start them off in pots inside and then transplant when big enough to hold their own, I do always loose one ...

Calabrese (Broccoli Glut)
Never thought I would say it but I have a calabrese glut and not the normal Courgette glut, though the season is still young on that front!
