Sunflowers

I have never grown sunflowers before so I really didn't know what to expect. I can't believe how tall they can grow. Some have very thick stems and lots of blooms. The kids helped me plant them by digging a hole and pouring the entire seed pack into the one hole. I can't wait to see how those ones end up. So far one has bloomed and I expect the rest to bloom over the next few days.

 I some how ended up with one sunflower that has a purple stem and giant green and purple leaves.

This has bloomed over the last few days
