Sunflowers are blooming!

A close-up of a blooming astilbe plant.

A surprise sunflower in our back yard; planted for us by our squirrels.

A striking maroon and gold daisy-like flower.

Purple and white climbing flowers against the sky.

Small purple and yellow flowers.

A fancier kind of Columbine.

Yellow perennials in the sun.

So bright and striking.
