Helianthus annuus

The frost seems to have killed off most of the flowers in my garden but this is determined to weather it out! 18/10/18

@SylviaDavies It's lovely 🌻🌻🌻

It’s lovely Sylvia. Mine are long gone

Gorgeous 🌸

Than you @dpkgujar

You're welcome 😊 @SylviaDavies

Morning all. Masses of seeds on my sunflowers. Any #advice please on how to collect/dry the seeds

Morning Sylvia....great photo 🌻

Morning Sylvia, I usually let them dry naturally outside in the sun and then the seeds will fall out with a good shake, I also leave some of the flower heads on the plant for the Finches to eat during the winter 😀👍🏼😀

Thank you @gjones @sieveheadsarah i think my main concern is that the weather is quite damp now with little opportunity for them to dry out or bake. I wondered whether i was better cutting the heads off and putting them in an airy under cover shed?

Love this multiheaded sunflower! Its 360*

I'm using this as my bit of sunshine these days! Morning everyone!

And it's wonderful Sylvia. Good morning 🌻🌞

Morning Sylvia beautiful shot and a welcome bit of brightness on a dull day 😘👍
