The 3 seeds from the daycare flower head collected last fall all turned into different-looking sunflowers.
- The one in front of my chair (central bed) is most similar to the original daycare plant: Similar height (~6'), similar or same colour (orange/red inner ring, yellow outer ring), same plentiful multi-branching. However, this one takes up a lot more space! Not compact at all. Although, the daycare one might have just looked more compact when it wasn't in my yard :D
- The one in the west bed (near compost bin) is taller (~7+'), and the flower is pure yellow. Same great multi-branching though.
- The one in the front is most different: Only about 5' tall, with the smallest flowers of the three, and the colour is burgundy inner ring, light yellow outer ring.
Fun to see how they all turn out! I love that they're all multi-branching. Currently they have only 1 open flower each, except the central bed which has 3 so far. Looking forward to them all having multiple flowers.
