Late Sunflower
This was taken back on the 3rd of October, very late bloom although it was not planted until June/July time i still did not expect anything like Sunflowers to grow this late in the season, although the weather lately has been crazy so nature is all messed up so i guess anything is possible.
It grew to around 12 inches tall before it started to die off.....

I had had the sprinkler on for a while before taking this photo, ground was a little dry......The droplets were a bonus.....

Azz, i`d say 12 inches is a baby.......A garden that backs onto ours grew them over the summer and they reached about 9 feet tall, never seem them as tall.......Heads alone grow to about 25 inches
