MUSTARD FORESTS AND SUNFLOWER OMELETTS

Omar and our largest mustard plant.

Mustard blossoms

This is a Red Admiral butterfly on our largest sunflower bloom.

Sunflowers are such gorgeous plants. I have loved them all my life but only recently found out that the sunflower blossom is not one flower, but a multitude of tiny flowers, in the head of the plant. The large yellow petals are not true petals at all. They are edible though, as is the whole plant. Fake petals and leaves have been finding their way into the omelettes Kaoutar  has been making for our breakfasts.
