The arrival of the sunflowers usually means that summer is at close end in my neck of the woods. These days I have been growing early bloomers like the Del Sol Sunflower (top photo) that bloom in 50 days. I am loving this variety that grows to 5 feet tall with numerous blooms on one plant. The Del Sol Sunflower not only keeps my garden cheerful it makes for a wonderful vase cutting with no pollen droppings on my kitchen counter so we can bring the sunshine indoors as well.
Does anyone share Tuesday Blooms in the blog world any more? I want to hear from you if you do so I can pop on over to check out your shares from the garden. Happy Tuesday Bloom – Bren
Beautiful, Bren! I like the branching sunflowers better (like yours) because of more blooms and the lower leaves don’t seem to die off as much as the non-branching types. I didn’t get my sunflowers planted until July 4th this year (along with others on Twitter), so they’re just now forming flower buds. Can’t wait until they open!
By the way, I planted the pea seeds you sent and they’re up and growing! Thanks again!
Wonderful post man, maintain the good function, just shared this with my friendz
Good color option on the blog. It really is genuinely uncomplicated on my eyes and I have bad eyes as well so that?¯s a seriously huge compliment lol
On Google+ they have a multitude of #photos every day of the week, lots going on there. I am going to try those sunflower seeds! Thank you for sharing.
