Start with some soil (dirt) and "Plant Fertilizer" or the equivalent, and your seeds. You can mix the dirt and fetilizer together, and cover your seeds about three quaters of an inch with the plant fertilizer. That will get you started. Water at least once a day. If you need something to plant in, buy something big enough to allow for the growth of your plant.
You plant a seed by: # buy a packet of seeds # open the packet # dig a small, thin hole # put one seed in the hole # put the dirt back in the hole # label where you planted the seed # water the seed lightly and watch it grow (as the seed turns into a plant and grows larger, you can start to water the plant more. Make sure you do not over water the plant though.)
actually you dig the hole twice as wide as the plant. here in Florida we add soil amendments. hence our saying; put a five dollar plant in a fifty dollar hole. also make sure the top of the rootball is even with the surrounding soil.
First, you must dig a hole the size of the pot the plant was in. Next, you must take the plant out of the pot and place it in the hole. Finally, pack dirt around the new plant, and ta-da! you planted a plant!
There are several varieties of sunflower seeds. It all depends on what your favorite flower is in the group. If you plant the seed in rich organic soil, it will reward you with a beautify display, and when it is done, you'll also have a head of seeds to enjoy.

How to plant the sunflower seed:
Usually, you plant a plant outside in the sunlight, but it depends on the plant. When you get plants, you can usually get instructions with them on where to plant them. Small plants can be planted in flower pots indoors.
You dig a hole and you put the seeds in
That is what I would do
Plant a sunflower seed
They call it this because most of the sunflower is flower sperm. The sac holding the sunflower seed is full of the sperm.
Yes. A sunflower has broad leaves
It is an angiosperm because the seed starts in side the flower not from a cone or anything like that

There is no need to do this with domesticated sunflower seed.
A sunflower seed is an achene which means a simple dry fruit. The sunflower seed are referred to as the fruit of the Sunflower because it is produce by the plant.
The shell of a sunflower which is white and black striped protects the seed inside of it. The seed, if planted becomes a sunflower plant.

No. Sunflowers are a plant. At least one company has come up with a beverage made from the seed kernels and they label it a "sunflower beverage".
For the sunflower (Helianthus annuus), the seed is a multilayered future plant that is enjoyed as a food source by many. What you see, when you have a sunflower seed, is the hard shell. It can be all black or striped. Break that open and you have the actual seed. The outer most covering on the seed, usually you don't notice it, is call the integumentary or seed coat.
EVERY plant produces fruit. fruit is a "seed holder." without the fruit, and the seed it contains, no plant could reproduce itself. in the case of the sunflower, the FRUIT is the HULL surrounding the seed. the HULL is an example of a SIMPLE DRY FRUIT, otherwise known botanically as a CYPSELA.

Short answer: YES, the sunflower can be considered an herb. The sunflower (Helianthus annuus) is a flowering annual dicot. As an annual, it is a herbaceous plant instead of a woody plant. It is no longer used as a medicinal herb, as it was by Native Americans many centuries ago. An herb is defined as any plant used for flavoring, food, medicine or perfume. The sunflower seed is used for human food, and the sunflower leaf and seed can be used for livestock feed; therefore, the sunflower can be classified as an herb.
The seed could be exposed to chemicals or radiation that could cause a mutation. Or the pollen from different types of sunflowers could pollinate different sunflower flowers. Sometimes a virus will mutate a flower.
