The flowers are so pretty Terri, both the finished “product” and the opening stages as well.

It’s fun to watch these bloom, especially after a warm sunny day. Can’t wait to see the forest floor covered with them 🌻🌻

We have the Spring Beauties on the forest floor, but they are low and kind of nondescript, nothing like your flowers.

Your sunflowers seem way ahead of ours, Terri. I’m guessing this is an early flowering-variety?

Yes, these are the wild arrowleaf sunflowers that bloom in April until the end of May. Then the domestic sunflowers start making an appearance. I can’t complain, Hugh. 🌻

Lucky you, Terri. I never see sunflowers until at least July. Enjoy every moment of them.

When I first saw these in May 2020 while visiting our property, I was so thrilled that wild sunflowers grew here. Less work for me to plant my own, although I really enjoyed cultivating domestic sunflower seedlings.

We’ve been unnaturally warm. We just had a wicked thunderstorm! So, now the cold front will move through and cool us back down.

Glorious yellow sunflowers
Gracing fields as far as the eye can see
