Sun(set)

So the sunflowers were short lived. I got home from work the other day to find the two on the end had collapsed, toppling over and pulling out their own roots. As I set out to clear them, the others fell in succession, like dominoes.

My second born was very upset. My oldest questioned why. The rest noted that they could now see out the front window. After months of dull green stalks, I hoped that the bright yellow blossoms might last awhile.

Yea, I'm absolutely going with a different variety next year.
