Sunflowers

Especially for Tammy who loves them !!! All my three sunflowers are showing their colors and they are beautiful. They are also a good larder for the bugs in the garden.

Here are some pics:
It's funny but one is black in the middle while the other ones are yellow/greens in the middle (I used the same seeds though).

Lovely blue sky at the sea.

Love your current wip. Now I can see there are purples and blues. Have you got the floss needed for Sweet Pea? Can't wait to see her finished.
