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.
