Sunflowers


Hello Everyone, 
I wanted to share this attractive mixtures of Sunflower varieties I have growing in my garden. 
There is a wide range of blossom colors, bloom times and plant heights.


The flowers bloom in shades of lemon yellow, gold, orange, red and mahogany.


The mixture is ideal for a cutting garden and beautiful as a border planting.


The Sunflowers range in height from 3 feet to 10 feet tall


The Sunflowers bloom from late Summer to early Fall


Birds will be attracted to the seeds, too. 


A good subject for kids' gardening




Welcome to Fall!
I will be sharing the sunshine around to some friendly folks.

  1. I love how happy sunflowers always look. And I love the late summer blooms. We usually get volunteers from our bird feeders, which is always fun, since these are branching sunflowers. This summer none sprouted, however....next year.

  13. Love sunflowers! I had a hard time keeping the birds away from the seeds this year and so had to replant three times - so I'm getting later blooms, but enjoying them all the same. :) Thanks for linking to the TGP!
