» Cottage_Garden - Glorious Sunflower

We all love sunflowers, maybe because as children we saw them towering over our heads, taller than even the grown-ups! Or maybe because they just plain look like sunshine and bring along a smile on sight. Or maybe because the seeds are big and easy to plant, and the plants are easy to grow in a sunny spot....

I dunno, but I sure like 'em! This one was sitting in a mixed bouquet of cut flowers displayed in a white plastic drywall-type bucket at an indooor/outdoor flower shop on a busy corner sort of near Universal Studios. So much for elegance!

Did you know that sunflowers turn to follow the sun during the day? That's why a sunflower seemed just right to go along with an article about lighting conditions: Sun or Shade!
