We decided Sunflowers would be our flower of choice this spring. Every year around spring my children and I plant flowers. This year, we chose every sunflower we could find. With very little to go off we were not aware of how much time, sun and water these beauties would need. Did you know sunflowers can take up to 6 weeks before you can see any signs of life from the seed? It’s always a joy to watch my children’s excitement for planting and this year it was even more joy because we were planting my mothers favorite flower.
Do you have a season tradition? If so, please share! I’d like to think of Sunflowers as signs of hope. My mother loved sunflowers, she would say they make life better. As I watch them grow on our patio… I am starting to see just what she meant.
