Here is the singular Chocolate Cherry blossom among the other flowers:
And finally, here is the closeup of the Chocolate Cherry sunflower, appropriately-sized for wallpaper:
A Wrung Sponge has the Sunday Garden Stroll roundup. Cloudscome snaps gorgeous photos, and I've tried to absorb her photography tips.
You may wonder how my garden posts relate to the scope of this song and story blog. I'm still trying to figure that one out. Please let me know if you come up with a viable answer first.

You have sunflowers and marigolds in your garden!
My favorite of your stories are the ones about your life, and your garden stories count(:
LSM: Yes! Thank you. By the way, I had no idea that there were so many different kinds of marigolds, too. I like the ones with striped leaves in particular.
These are wondrous fine photos, and I am very grateful to see them! I will no doubt add a few to my screensaver.

And the big red chocolate one, I made that my wallpaper. Sending hugs via the internet sunflower fairies ...

Lucia's hair is short! Very cute on her!
I love your sunflowers. The colors are beautiful.
I like those marigolds, too.
I love your garden posts - they are story and song and beauty. You have fabulous sunflowers here and a darling daughter showing them off.
I love your photos here, especially the one with your daughter, and the close-up of the chocolate-cherry sunflower. I know what you mean about Cloudscome's photos, too!
I second what Lone Star Ma said.
Beautiful photos.
Beautiful sunflowers!
I have a sunflower garden outside the library. Every spring I do a garden themed program and have all the kids plant sunflowers in paper cups. Later I bring the transplants outside and (most years) label them with the kids names.
I got them started late this year, so right now the plants are only a foot or two tall. But with our hot Virginia weather, by the end of the month I expect to have lots of beautiful flowers!
Thanks for all these great responses. Way to make a lowly storyteller feel pretty special.:) And Library Lady, I'm so glad you have a sunflower garden outside your library.
Lovely!
