Bombs of sunflowers

Like many others like us, without a yard or with a small yard, we belong to a community garden. It's only our second year in the garden, but we are getting it. Each year when I'm planning out my veggies, my son is planning out his sunflower & snap dragon flowers. 
He loves his flowers, but will not openly admit it. 
He loves sunflowers and snapdragons best because they are "good pollination for the bees." 

He has a style to planting these  sunflowers. He forms the seeds into mud compost balls, so called "seed bombs" and he strategically puts them into the ground. So far, both years he has had great success with his sunflowers.
