i have about 50 or so standing tall .. only a couple have 'popped' just yet .. i love the long row of them that i planted beside the back porch railing .. when those pop .. i'll share pics of them too.


this one is actually from a seed that 'fell into' our 'COWBOY TIN TUB'. i'm amazed that this one grew so tall since the dirt isn't much more than about two feet deep.

that's our outdoor 'shower deck' behind it.

OH HAPPY DAY .. my favoritest flowers are starting to bloom .. thought i'd share a few photos with ya'll!

Frannie, I'll take a few of those sunflower seeds. I like to plant the first row of my garden in flowers. Love your schoolhouse. Can't wait to see pictures of it decorated.

Frannie absolutly beautiful. Sunflowers are my favorite. I don't know what happened to mine this year but they sure are not as nice as they were last. Thanks for the pics. Laura

I got sunflowers this year but didn't plant them intentionally. They came up from the sunflower seeds that were in my bird feeders. The honeybees are really enjoying them right now.

It's never too late to be what you might have been.

Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

So pretty! I always plant mine too late I guess. Mine are only about up to my hip and don't have flowers yet.
