Sunflowers beginning to open
« on: August 03, 2005, 19:39:28 »
Planted a few different sunflower seeds at the back of the garden.  These are (I think) Velvet Queen and Vanilla Ice.  (Or they could be Autumn Beauty and Italian White.)  Anyway I like 'em. :D

Thanks peeps. :)  Previous year I sowed a whole packet straight into the ground and only one grew, so this year I started them in modules.  They're all multi stemmed - great for cut flowers.
