A SUNNY FACE

My neighbor across the street has put in a big garden but the javelinas got all his zucchini this year.

But that didn't stop this smiling face.


That's a huge bloom, as big as my face.

Sunflowers make everyone happy, I think.

  1. A four foot fence for the javelina, a ten foot fence for deer, and netting for grasshoppers; to protect a garden; you need a yard that looks like a jail.

  3. I always like to bring home a bouquet of sunflowers from Trader Joe's. Even though they are itchy stems, they are a burst of sunshine!

  7. The yellow bits are modified leaves, the face is made of numerous little flowers, each a fertilization point that can produce a seed. They are also tough and will defend themselves. Obviously, I love them.

  8. Beautiful sunflowers! Bummer about the zucchini, but the pigs are happy and maybe your neighbor's karma has improved as a result. :)
