This year Mom planted some sunflowers around the yard and we by far had the best results up in the front of the house as you can see from the photo with Sam. The sunflowers in the backyard just didn’t get enough full sun (blocked by the hydrangeas) to really get big, but they were still very pretty. We will definitely do this again next year and maybe try a couple of different locations in the backyard. Mom has harvested some of the sunflower seeds and will probably take down the rest of the sunflowers later this week.
Meanwhile, Dad had a chance to visit the NC State sunflower field this year and he was able to get a couple of photos… obviously they planted a few more than we did. 😉
