My BEAUTIFUL Autumn Beauty Sunflower

 


I feel as if I just gave birth - I'm so proud. My rust-colored sunflower finally bloomed. It was a package of mixed colors and all of them so far except this one are the standard sunflower yellow. I think this is gorgeous. 




These sunflowers are only 4-5 ft. I actually think I like them better than the Russian Mammouth.  Plus they have multiple flowers to one stem. 




I have quite a few that haven't opened up yet - They are so pretty. 





See the bee? They love my sunflowers. 


I'm so glad I had the foresight to plant a later batch of sunflowers for Sept 

and hopefully lasting into October. 

They bring me so much JOY.  They've been like my little friends this summer.

  1. I hope the bees enjoy your flowers, but they're off the bird and squirrel radar.

  2. I love all your sunflowers. The bees do love them. My daughter had a bunch of sunflowers, all different colors. She would send me pics of the bees on them. I really hate to see them start fading. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
