The sunflowers are now thigh high. They have had a good amount of rain (especially for August) and are growing like weeds. As a matter of fact, there are plenty of weeds growing in the field, too.
This is Farmer Ted out standing in his field. Unfortunately for him, he made a face when I took the photo, so that is the one that gets posted. (He said he couldn't believe that I would post this particular photo...but really? He should know me better by now.)
Still projecting a couple more weeks until they bloom.
Patience!
do you think we'll be able to see the flower on the 24th ?
ReplyDeleteThey will not be blooming then. I'm still thinking the end of the month.
ReplyDeleteI will be coming from Houston, and I was wondering if I should plan on the week of the 1st of September, or later?
ReplyDeleteQuite a few will be in bloom the 1st week in Sept. Today and the next 4 days will be 100 degrees so that will make things go pretty quickly, I'd think. They are usually in bloom for 2 weeks. I put up a new picture and they are all starting to develop a flower head. Good luck.
