Flowers and more flowers

What are your favorite flowers in the summer?
Well I have a one I would like to mention.
Sunflowers
To me every garden should have just one of these stunning
yellow beauties.
Now you can direct seed them in your garden for a great burst
of color come this fall. 
There are so many types to choose from.  On our farm
we grow mostly branching types.  Which allows us to cut
from many different times during the blooming stages.



There are many different types
If you want to get to the flower before the birds do
cut them before the fully open.  This is the best time
to cut them for cut flowers.

For a continuous supply of flowers continue planting
throughout the summer.

Looking at the calender we have about 90 days left
in the growing season.

  More flowers to come.
Flowers on their way to market.
