That's very pretty!! Is that a bee in the middle of the bloom? If so just imagine the beautiful combinations of colors you'll get next year!!

Wow!! You added the photo showing how huge it is after I made my post!! The leaves are hugmongus (sp?) It is so hard to believe a plant that size can from such a little seed!lol!

It was planted about the end of April .It has taken a while to grow so big .I love Sun Flowers but never thought of one growing so large.It is now hanging its head.It is so full of seeds and so heavy .I look for something to attack it any time .I hope I get to see what trys it.I will plant more next year .I hope to save some of the seeds and see what color they turn out to be .The wasp and Bees have had a field day on it.
