Ninth in the series
My Sunflower almost to full bloom.
As you can see his petals are just starting to take a little tole, curling in and falling a little.

Very striking against the dark background. I can see you are going to miss Mr Sunflower when he's gone, such is life. Very good effort, can hardly wait for the next series=^..^= #4533435

Thanks so very much Chris. Not sure what for another series, but thinking about thistles. My husband loves them and we have one that is about 6 feet tall. TONS of blossoms starting. He is pretty cool. Don't like where he is at though so we will see. #4533499
