All it takes is just a little Sunflower.
Was surprised when I found these in the local grocery store.
It was raining and cold outside.
April showers bring May flowers.
The sun peeked it's head out of the clouds but the wind is still howling.
The good thing is the rain helped in melting the snow that was fighting to stick around.
A few days from now we will be in warmer temps and I hope the sunshine brings May flowers with just a little less rain. Rain is good..Flowers are good..Sunshine is needed..

Beautiful pictures, very creative!
Hi, Shirley, sweet friend,
I am glad you were able to pick up some wonderful sunflowers at your grocers. We have had up and down temps all spring. Warm today and tomorrow, then turning rainy and cooler mid week! Your sunflowers really brightened my day. . .love and hugs. . .Vicki
It was so nice to see the deferent perspectives from which you shot these pictures. I have not seen sunflowers in the stores as of yet...lots of tulips and roses. You really let your creativity flow. genie
Gorgeous shot! I love sunflowers.
A lovely "sun" you show, it needed a little sunshine pictures in the rain.
Have a nice Monday :-)
Summers not far away when you see sun flowers. They just scream summer. x
Our sunflowers have long gone - but the seed head is hung up waiting for some hungry birds. I live in hope!

I haven't seen any sunflowers in the stores here, yet. They are such fun to photograph, and you did a really nice job. They have put a smile on my face this rainy Monday morning.genie
Hi! Very beautiful sunflower photos. I hope it will warm soon.
Thank you for sharing with you.
you brought the sunshine into your home with the sun flowers. They are always so cheerful!
They're gorgeous! I love sunflowers.
I love the first two shots! Gorgeous perspective.
Shirley,
I used to love this flower very much, but haven't seen them in awhile. Your pictures brought back sweet memories for me. I will have to get some sunflowers for myself very soon.
Happy Monday.

Very pretty sunflowers and photos!
Shirley, last week my yard looked like winter then we had three days of really warm weather and everything was transformed and blooming. It's so pretty here now. Yours will be that way very soon. :) Since Easter was so early I had nothing blooming so I asked my husband to bring something bright and cheery and yellow and Springy from the grocer or florist on his way home from work. He brought sunflowers. LOL.....not exactly an Easter flower. I went to an estate sale over the weekend and thought of you. I bought a really really pretty old Valentine. xo
Lovely photos, Shirley. Very, very lovely. Thanks for sharing. Susan
How strange to find a Sunflower this time of year---but so beautiful. What a good pick-me-up. MB
Lindos sois amarelos!
Gorgeous sunflowers! Thanks for sharing these lovely photos with Today's Flowers, and wishing you much sunshine in the days ahead.
i saw some pretty flowers at the market yesterday! always a happy flower!!
So pretty! Just what we need on these dreary April days. Waiting for my tulips and daffodils to come up just a little more.
So pretty, Shirley. Glad to see the sunflowers. I haven't noticed any in our stores yet..Happy Tuesday..Judy
Bellissimi girasoli!Come va?spero bene!Baci,Rosetta
Shirley, your floral photography is so wonderful. The sunflowers are so cheerful but my heart sang when I read your post from last week showcasing the pink and white bouquet.
As I walk through my yard, I see tiny green shoots poking through the ground here and there. But Spring weather and flowers are still just a dream.
