Collecting Sunflowers and Simple & Sweet Fridays #27

It was just the perfect day to start harvesting a lot of my sunflowers outside.
I love the way they look right after 
you cut them off the stalk.
This was one of the biggest ones.
There's still some sunflowers left on the hill. 
 With the heat in San Diego,
they're growing quickly.

I'll have a lot of sunflowers for next year.
Happy Gardening!

  8. Dear Jody and Stan,
    Thank you so very much for featuring my latest post! I was so surprised and you made my evening! Love all your sunflowers and your garden is so inviting with your lighted paths and raised beds. I never got around to planting the annual sunflowers this year and I miss them so. I usually poke the sunflower heads in my picket fence for the birds to enjoy. Have a wonderful weekend and thank you again!
