It looks as if summer is coming to an end, at least my backyard is still full of sunshine from the hugely successful sunflowers!
Pretty much all of the plants have now flowered with the largest of the flowers growing to a huge 30cm in diameter. It is a shame the the stalk cannot hold such a huge flower head up straight, or it may be that the stalk can but with the huge numbers of bumble bees that have stopped in for a break this may have pushed the flower over the tipping point.
The flowers have been such a success that there is almost a guarantee that I will give them another go next season.
