This year, I've sorta neglected the garden.
I planted a few things, but I haven't been out there everyday (morning and night) like last year.
This year, things have been planting themselves.

Like these mammoth sunflowers. They're at least 9 feet tall, and all volunteers.
(For those of you non-gardeners, I've learned that means they come up from the seeds released by the ones you did plant in the years before.
Now you know.)

I love the other-worldliness of the just-about-to-bloom flower.

And I love the ever so slight curve of the petals.


That's all I have to say about that.
