The main flower of the daycare sunflower in the central bed opened!! It's beautiful! The same two-tone that I loved last year. This is from the seeds (flower head) the daycare owner gave me last fall. I wasn't optimistic that they'd be true, but so far I'm totally impressed, there will be oodles of flowers on the plant thanks to all the branching, just like the plant I oohed and aahed over last year.
The two other daycare sunflowers are behind -- the one in the NW corner is coming along for sure, but looks smaller an not opened yet -- the one in front of the fence is quite runty looking, but so are the other two sunflowers in front of the fence.
Added this note a few days later: Hardly any bees/etc. attracted to it...? (Compared to last year's mammoths which were "hives" of activity)
