Sunflowers!
Sunflowers have to be some of the happiest flowers. Just seeing them has to make you smile. No matter the size or the variety, I love the way they turn to face the sun as the day progresses. We are in the Fraser Fir capital of the country and there is a Christmas tree vendor not far from me. Every fall, a few months before the trees are cut, the lot is filled with blooming sunflowers, and every year I intend to take pics. This year I did.
So beautiful.
Very nice!! I love sunflowers!!
Oh what beautiful sunflowers you have on display 😀
But I love daisies! Happy first day of fall!
One of my favorite flowers! They just bring smiles to anyone who see them!

Such beauty 🌻🌻🌻🌻
Thank you – it made me happy to spend some time trying to capture them!
And we are glad you did!
Thanks for posting this, Karen. It brings back a lot of memories of my youth growing up in Kansas (“The Sunflower State”). I never really appreciated them until I moved away and no longer see the fields of them along with the Meadow Larks sitting on the fence posts with their beautiful songs.
The fields of sunflowers in the midwest are amazing! I always wanted to get out of the car and walk among those giant flowers, but thought the farmers might not appreciate it . . .
There is nothing more cheerful than a sunflower!
You are right! Sunflowers do make me smile and I want to be around them for that very reason. 🌻
I love how tall sunflowers get. They are a pretty flower, to be sure, but my favorite feature is how tall and tough the stalk is. Such a symbol of strength! Great photos! Thanks for this post!
I LOVE sunflowers! 🙂 🙂
