Helianthus flowers again
This past July was the wettest on record. We got 13.93 inches of rain, over treble the normal amount (4.17 inches). The start of August, however, has been dry and pleasant. Good weather coincided with the appearance of sunflowers. These bloomed some weeks later in Vernon CT:
This year's Vernon crop is comparable to last year's show there. The former Manchester garden was also good:

Good for you all the same. Over in Malaysia we have over a month of serious heatwave. Plants all around drying up
The sun flower you posted last year was very nice than this one but all the same flowers beautify environment and I love them when planted.
@ Martin Wong,
Lately there have been awful heatwaves in Iraq and Iran, in the southern US and now Malaysia. No doubt part of anthropocentric climate change….greenhouse warming. We had better do something about that soon.
Thanks to both of you for the comments. I might post more pics on this thread if better blooms appear.

Those flowers are impressive. You did an amazing job of planting and growing them.
Hi Neal. Thank you! I planted the sunflowers in the lower pic some time ago.

It's nice to have spectacular flowers. They are excellent for decorating a place.
Couldn't agree more Neal. :) Btw did you see the pic in my fb timeline?
