I thought I would share with you, these pics that I took on Saturday. I can see this lovely cheery sunflower from the window of the office where I sit at my computer. It has come up all on it's li'l own in a corner of my very unkempt veggie garden. It's about chest height on me and I'm about 5'2 1/2" tall. Our yard is quite large and at the moment is all green (trees, shrubs, grass and of course weeds!) When I look out over it, this sweet flower is about the only other colour I can see in this expanse of green. My eye is drawn to it immediately I look out the window. Such a bright sunny colour. It's lasted for quite some time. I just love to look out at it. Sunflowers are one of my favourites.
I'm going to scan a photo into the puter tomorrow of another one that came up wild.....oh gosh......soooo many years ago in just about the same spot, and it was more than twice my height!! I'll post it probably tomorrow night, so watch this spot. :))
Aren't you just constantly amazed at the extremities and capabilities of Mother Nature? I know I am.
Hey Pam,
ReplyDeleteYour vintage piece is gorgeous!!!!
You should press that flower and frame it...
it must be really tall, cause i think you are shorter than me and that...is short!
