    We have had two days of rain, so I bought some bright & cheerful sunflowers to cure my spring fever.

    Thanks for the compliments on my flowers. When I walk I collect twigs & branches to use in my arrangements. First I tried to use gypsophilia but it didn't look good, so I took it out.

    Your right gfr the gyp does over shadow the flowers somewhat...right decision.
