Garden Gram #17: September Sunflowers - Making a Case for Late Bloomers
+ six tips for sunflower success.
My sunflowers have bloomed, and they are not disappointing. That’s sort of a silly thing to say, really, because who’s ever heard of a disappointing sunflower? Though come to think of it, when your too-short vase with a tall sunflower tips over, that’s disappointing. Or if the minute you bring sunflowers into the house, they begin to drop pollen everywhere, that can be aggravating. But still, it’s a sunflower! (And there are solutions for these problems.)
How lovely it is to have a whole new variety of flowers in September.
