Even with a rainy season here, I shall not be beaten!
And to think I was SO excited when the seeds sprouted......
But, now that the flowers are out....YAY!

The pots of sunflowers are growing well (large & small seeds) and my sunflower patch....well, I shall have to wait and see. Yesterday, they were fine...

But, today, not so! These little critters were on there today chomping away....

| Can you see the kemushi peeking out?? |
And, last week, I caught the old kemushi having a go at a leaf...It's a wonder these have survived at all! The garden is so enclosed that it's a delight for woodlice, ants, mozzies and so on...eeek!
.....A few days later and I think the typhoons have passed!
The sunflowers at the front are blooming nicely and the ones at the back are actually bending and stretching towards the sun! Let's hope they flower as that was where last year's sun(non)flower was.....

| My neighbour wasn't convinced about planting seeds in pots.....!!! |
Oh, how I love the sunflower!!!!!
