Yellow


I have never planted sunflowers before so it is exciting to see the first flower emerge from it's tall stalk.  Eventually there will be a whole row of them against the garage wall.

We are currently harvesting lemons -- lots and lots of lemons.

  1. That's a very pretty first sunflower Joan.
    I've often thought of growing them and never got around to it!
    Lots of lemony things going on at your place :D) Lovely!

    1. They get children to grow them so I figured I should have a chance of success.

  2. I've never grown sunflowers. They always remind me of the artist Vincent Van Gogh.

  3. So much sunshine eminating from this bloom. A basket of lemons with a sunflower beside would make for a lovely image.

  6. What a beauty! Aren't they cheerful? I want to grow more of them this year than last. And the birds love them late in the season, too, so don't yank them when they appear spent.

    1. I think it was your blog that inspired me to give them a go. Thanks for the advice regarding the seeds.
