Best sunflower ever!



My garden feels a little unrewarding because building's going on - but I'll have a garage and roofed deck at the end of the mess, and the horrid structures in the garden will finally go. In the meantime there are building materials everywhere, and the kikuyu is creeping back through the lawn...


So this is a small view, with the mess edited out - and the wonderful sunflower! I planted seeds from so many packets I don't know which it is - but i have certainly never had such a beauty ever before. The main flower is resolutely facing the wall - all of these are the secondary ones, with masses more to come.

There are a few Cupani sweet peas on the trellis - I had masses of seeds saved but they're a bit old and hard to germinate, and they don't seem to be for sale any more. I hope I can get a few from these.
