Perfect Time to Start Planting Sunflowers

Sunflowers are a very helpful plant to any organic garden and I love planting them every single year for attracting bees and other important insects.  I planted them today along with a similar type of flower called cosmos.  They do not look anything alike, but they are part of the same family which makes them related.














Cosmos Seeds














I also had some seeds left from yesterday when I planted my queen anne's lace that I decided to use the rest of them on a couple of green pots.  I also planted some more statice which happens to be a good flower for attracting insects as well.  High nectar plants are perfect for this reason.
