Giant Sunflowers

     I didn't plant these intentionally, they just appeared by my composter in the Spring. The fence is six feet tall so you can work out how tall they have grown. Still three more to open but I thought I had better capture these three in case they were attacked by an animal (which has happened in the past).

  1. Those must be going to grow as tall as Jack's beanstalk!

    1. They are supplying a bit of much needed shade in that corner of the garden!

  2. Will you harvest the seeds for next year?

    1. No, I think the animals (squirrels, raccoons?) will spread them around sufficiently when they start to attack the heads as they did last year.

  3. Sunflowers are such happy looking flowers.

    1. They certainly are, especially with the blue sky behind them. Pat, I haven 't been able to comment on your blog recently (a Captcha problem?)

  4. They are looking rather stately for having been a bit of an accident.

    1. Sign me Susanne. Must figure out how to sign back in, as I needed to clear all my computer cookies this a.m.
