I only have a few containers on the deck but it's fun to watch them grown and produce.

Will these make seeds for birds to eat? I have some smaller ones in the bud stage; the first year I've grown them so I'm anxious to see what they look like. The weather here is hot and getting very dry, as usually happens just as the veggies reach the stages of bearing.lil red henhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15494641068959278096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1755931701182556976.post-51489947501637497222016-06-23T08:00:14.611-07:002016-06-23T08:00:14.611-07:00Beautiful flowers and gourds and of course I love ...Beautiful flowers and gourds and of course I love your embroidery, it is perfect as always!Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10872993421541750625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1755931701182556976.post-77825544959493513942016-06-23T06:22:09.333-07:002016-06-23T06:22:09.333-07:00I really love sunflowers, but cannot grow them.
