I happen to love sunflowers.
They are so simple yet so beautifully complex.
One day I will learn to garden without animals eating it all
and I will have sunflowers everywhere
and we will sit in the shade and sip our tea
taking in all that is life
nevercontrary 
Um, this is the most perfect post ever. Pure poetry.
Why thank you!
I had such a very bad day today; these sunflowers are so perfect at the end of it. The Waiting is absolutely right.
I am so sorry you had a bad day. And I am glad I could brighten it if even only a little.
I’m with you and just as happy to buy them as to have my own.
oh yes, nothing like a bouquet of sunflowers
Beautiful – Happy Monday:)
happy monday to you as well.
There’s this cool trick where you can use a sunflower as a trellis. Once it gets 1-2 feet in height, drop some green bean seeds in the earth at the base, and watch them get a pretty lift. It got too hot to quick here for me to try it yet. Maybe next year!
