I have one flowering now which has one large, main head, but there's a smaller one growing at each leaf node!!

I had heard that there are varieties that do this but I don't know what they are called.

Any ideas, cos I'd like to find out!

We call it confused... we had a developed Giant strain and then grew cutting sunflowers too close one year...  ::)
