Flower Wednesday

As it is such a grey, drizzly and breezy day, well it is here in Staffordshire, I thought I would introduce some sunshine in the form of a few sunflowers.

    1. Yes, the colours are autumnal aren't they, perhaps they are heralding the change of seasons:)

    1. I've never grown them but they are wonderful and the ones we saw were well over 6ft tall, although there were some smaller ones too:)

  7. I bought a bunch of them as cut flowers earlier this week. They really do brighten the place up, don't they?
