Sunflower

I grew this sunflower from a seed. It's now about 7.5' tall. Wow.

Spring

Spring brings new colors and animals to the backyard. This yellow crab spider's color contrasts with the blue/purple flowers of some lavender flowers.
The epiphyllum bloom time is starting. Don't blink, or you'll miss the bloom!
I've got a patch of milkweed growing from the seeds I collected last year. The Monarch butterflies have already found it and the catepillars are feeding off the leaves.
