  1. Sunflower Rescue

    We found volunteer sunflower sprouts growing in between the sidewalk. It was such a random thing to see that at first I thought they were just weeds.

    But as the sprouts continued to grow taller, I inspected their leaves and told Travis, “I think these are sunflowers!” 😲🌻

    I didn’t even know sunflowers could grow in such a tight space. Haha! But some plants are known to grow just about anywhere, I suppose. 😄

    I do wonder if we hadn’t of “rescued” the random sunflower sprouts, could they have survived growing in between the sidewalk?

    We did have two sprouts that needed more time to grow their roots, so I’ve been giving them some TLC in a repurposed honey jar.

    This morning, I checked the sprouts, and one is finally ready to go in a pot of soil. Once it outgrows it’s pot, I will transplant it into a grow bag.

    Sunflower sprout I’ve been growing in a repurposed honey jar of water. Look at that phenomenal root growth! 😲🌻Grow, baby grow! We’re all “rooting” for you! 😄

    We have five of the volunteer sunflower sprouts currently growing in our garden beds.

    They weren’t too happy about being transplanted, but after a few days and some good rainy days, they perked up and are now happy and thriving in the garden!

    So, where did the volunteer sunflowers come from? My winter bird feeder! 😂

    The birds/squirrels must’ve dropped the seeds, and once the weather warmed up, the sunflower seeds germinated! 😲🌻

    What makes this sunflower rescue story even funnier is I said I wasn’t going to grow sunflowers this year.

    We grew beautiful sunflowers last year, but I didn’t think we’d have the space for it this gardening season because we needed the room for our grow bags.

    I guess the sunflowers said, “Make room for us!” 😂🌻 #sunflowerswin

    P.S.—the feature image is of one of our sunflowers from last year.

  5. Good morning, sunshine!

    I was surprised and delighted to stumble upon a pocket sunflower garden in the Theater District of San Jose. The space was clearly once a parking lot, and I wondered if the murals were painted before or after the garden was set up. (This part of San Jose has a lot of murals and street art.)

  6. A tranquil #CountryGarden near Spilsby in Lincolnshire unfolds with vibrant flowerbeds, lush rhubarb leaves, and sweeping lawns under a dramatic summer sky. The #SummerLandscape is framed by towering old trees, with splashes of color from blooming roses and other seasonal flowers in a carefully tended #FlowerGarden. Surrounded by historic countryside, the area is known for its scenic walks and charming rural character, perfect for a slow-paced afternoon. The #LushGreenery and layered #ScenicView create a peaceful retreat typical of England’s classic walled and ornamental gardens.
