A Snowy Day With Sunflowers – 02/28/2019
Garry came back from the grocery while the snow was softly falling. I already had flowers from last week, so I picked out the ones that were dead, left the chrysanthemums which were in good shape.
But I was grateful. We’ll be locked in the house for a day or two, depending on how much snow we get, though it’s supposed to relatively light and fluffy. That is my favorite kind of snow and I’m sure there’s a special word for it in some arctic language. There are a bunch and I don’t know any of them.

I like that they are beautiful AND useful. The birds certainly love them. Lots of people, too.

Just the flower and its color make the day brighter 😀

Sunflowers always look so cheery! Hopefully it will not be too much longer before you may be able to pick some wild ones. (Well, some leaning close to a roadside fence anyway!) 😉

I don’t think they grow wild. They ARE cultivated, however in huge fields. Some become flowers, but the seeds are used for many things — food and oil and grain. It’s a very beautiful flower with many uses.

I’m not clear about this. Did Garry bring you sunflowers from the grocery? You never mention that he did. I just guessed so because you only mention leaving mums from the old bunch Lovely pic, though.

Yes, there’s a sort of florist in the grocery. When we aren’t totally broke Garry buys flowers. He even bought me a card to go with it. And it isn’t my birthday for 12 days.
