HAPPY FALL EVERYBODY !

I wanted to share some pictures of my sunflowers. This year I experimented with some different seeds and grew many seedlings in the spring. After I forgot to water some and after I planted them outside not all of them survived. Actually I only have four at this point. The kids trampled over some and I know some soccer balls took out some other. So I have three in the front and one on the side of the house. I was beginning to worry that they would never bloom but they started last few weeks. Aren't they gorgeous?
The bees are buzzing on them all day long.
Can you believe how tall this one is? I can almost touch it from our bedroom window. The neighbors have been asking what did I feed it with. Nothing special that I can think of. However I did pour few cups of leftover coffee on it. (By the way Sam took this picture. He does a very good job don't you think?)

Wow! That is the tallest sunflower I have ever seen. Maybe the coffee gave it a boost...just like it does us:)The pictures you took of them are really pretty. Amy
Lenka,
Your pictures are so beautiful! (Sam takes a pretty good picture too.) It must not have been the year for sunflowers. Our friend's son lost his first crop and had to replant. I must say the four of yours that survived are very pretty.
