Our Sunflowers grow Daily!

Look how unbelievably tall that sunflower is!!!!!
Our garden. Elli is standing by the rogue cucumber plant, outside the fence. We planted a row of sunflowers, nine in all. 7 are currently blooming. Not bad:)
This is the largest head on any of the flowers. Also, do you see the size of that bee? I looked up online how to harvest the seeds. We may have a new snack soon at the Ferguson home. I have learned so many new things this summer by having this garden.
When we planted our sunflowers, Elli couldn't wait for them to grow so we could take a picture with sunglasses on the flower and us. We saw this at a sunflower field last year and she has talked about it several times. So, out we go with sunglasses on. (yes she is posing) I love her little memory and imagination!!!
