Sunday Savvy #90
Sunday Lime 1


Already, we have poem-ed ourselves through a half of this year. Last Sunday in June, paint me Van Gogh yellow, for I have always loved and still do, Sunflowers. I bought a pack of seeds one time, followed the instructions and planted them. No response. My garden is sans Sunflowers. Note to self " i must try planting Sunflowers again. Sunday Question: What does your garden lack that you feel strongly it should have

Perhaps the glory of the sunflower is in understanding its beauty and shine - it is good to try and plant them literally but we can also do it in words ;)

Gillena Cox said...

Thanks for your appreciation Jae

much love...

Sanaa Rizvi said...

Lots of love,

I never had much luck either when I had a garden. Fussy flowers obviously. Better luck next time Gillena. The illustration is great.

This gives me a feeling of calm. There is such beauty in a field of sunflowers.

Diane Mayr said...

I love to come across sunflowers--they are so darn smile-inducing!

Rosemary Nissen-Wade said...

A sweet verse! I don't have sunflowers growing, but someone down the road does, and I enjoy seeing them.

Oh I will pick the first sunflowers for you Gillena and make a beautiful vase....my garden needs a bit more care from me these days....baby steps though as I rest from the heat. Plant the sunflowers and water them almost daily until they sprout. Birds and critters love them and ants will take them so beware that maybe critters took your seed from the garden. They will self seed once you get some to grow and let a few flowers linger and die on the stem and scatter seed on the ground.
