I wish it was real...

My lovely Mother-in-Law gave me some sunflower seeds from her garden in Devon last year. We planted them up in little seed trays this year, and they grew so quickly. I couldn't believe my luck...

We transferred them to the garden at the appropriate time... and since then, they've all died or been eaten :(

This is a artificial sunflower corsage I have tied to one of the bookcases in my lounge. It's the nearest I've got to my very own sunflower this summer!
