This year, I planted lots of sunflower seeds. They were pretty old, so I really didn’t expect most of them to sprout and flower. Well, I was dead wrong on that front and we have had quite the summer of sunflowers. Some of them have gotten to 8’ tall, and all of them have produced multiple blossoms. I thought I’d share a few photos of them, plus some random pics from around Vancouver this summer.

Yes, more sunflowers
The daisies also did well this summer.
