Next year, these sunflower seeds will become beautiful tall sunflowers.
Well the seeds that the birds and squirrels don’t get will grow up to be sunflowers. Each year I end up with dozens of sunflowers growing in my boulevard garden. I either pluck them out or move them toward the back (edge closed to the road) so that I can maintain the order of my little boulevard garden.
In the ground they will grow until they become towering plants with thick stalks and multiple blooms – just like this one.
Gorgeous aren’t they?
I still haven’t cut down the stalks from this summers growth yet. I will have to get that done this week because before I know it snow will be here. Through the winter I’ll spend some time looking at these sunny photos. It will help me get through the darkest coldest days.

Very nice!! I like the idea, too, of looking at photos like these through the cold, colorless winter.
I love sunflowers!!! Mine is up, stop on by!
Have a grea Saturday!
What a fantastic take on today’s theme. I love it. Mine’s up
I love sunflowers. The color in these shots is really good. Nice job 🙂
I want to plant sunflowers next year when we plant our garden.
They really do brighten up a dreary day…it’s rainy and gloomy here this morning so thanks for sharing such a sunny picture!
Sunflowers are so cool.
Those are lovely- great to see the contrast of the flower in different seasons.
Great photos. 🙂 The second photo of the sunflower is beautiful. 🙂
Have a good weekend. 🙂
Great look at the theme! Your sunflower picture is gorgeous.
Great choice for this weeks theme!
Sunflowers are so fascinating. Great pictures.
Oh I love it! It’s beautiful!
I love sunflowers … so I had one tattoo on my back last month!
Mine’s up too 🙂
Yes, soon the snow will be here. That’s why I take lots of garden photos in the summer to sustain me through the winter.
I love your pics. Sunflowers are pretty much my favorite flower! They are so bright and beautiful!
My Photo(s) are up too! 🙂
I love sunflowers too. Where we used to live there was a huge field they would overseed w/ sunflowers every year. People would stop and take pictures of their kids in the field of sunflowers. I always meant to but it was one of those things, ‘I’ll get to it next time.’ Now we’ve moved! waaah.
My photos up now, come take a look.
I love the pictures and the story. I have seen the results like this before. I sunflower plant grows somewhere that it was not planted and the later, if you are not quick, the squirrels harvest the seeds. I guess it is only right since they planted it. Great take for the theme.
Great sunflower, I like the red’ish in the inside. I had sunflowers in my garden too, mostly to feed the birds, but it was beautiful and easy maintained.
