IAVOM – Morning Light

Enjoying the last of the dahlias in the morning light. While there are a few more buds that will reach flowering, cooler nights are slowing things down and frost will eventually end the show before the month is out.

IAVOM – Sunny

Time to showcase my sunflower pocket vase with a mini-sunflower (Helianthus annuus) grown from seeds saved from a previous summer. Those plants were short and while these plants are also short, the crosses have been interesting!

Additionally, there is goldenrod (Solidago sp.), black-eyed Susan (Rudbeckia hirta), calendula (C. officinalis) and woodland sunflower (Helianthus divaricata).
