Your Sunflowers have reminded me that I have not (for some odd reason) grown them in the last couple of years? Foolish me, and your pictures are great

It made me want to see if I even took any pictures of the ones in my gardens here in the past years I was growing them,... and was happy to find these:

Bees Bonehead!

There always seem to be bees on the sunflowers.

For sure!

That is what I found when contributing to the counting -- I never reported a 'zero' day.

I have left some really raggedy looking stalks in place because there are a few straggler blooms keeping the bees entertained.

Well what are those sunflowers in dark orange and yellow color. I never see them before, is that some special kind of sunflowers, but I like them because they looks different. Anyhow thanks for sharing.
