Sept. 5, 2011---better than yesterday

Well, I took the flowers and okra from yesterday's disaster and used them differently in a different windowsill.  I like this much better. With much shorter stems, the sunflowers weren't as uncooperative.  The petals of some of the sunflowers had wilted, so I just pulled them off and used the seed heads with green bracts in the middle vase. I like this little lineup of sunflowers and okra at different stages of development. And I like that fact that it wouldn't have happened without yesterday's failure.
