Favorite Blooms: Summer Sunflowers

What do you think of when you think of sunflowers? The American Midwest? Tuscany? Spitting out seeds? The best bargain from the Trader Joe’s blossom segment? For a lot of us, sunflowers just cheer us up and make us happy; incorporating a vase full of these to a space can immediately transform the mood. Since the very first day of summer is approaching, and that is when The National Sunflower Association has its own summer seminar, it seems like a great time to provide these hard-working allure their thanks.
