Well, maybe a Daddy. I dunno. But one of the sunflowers I planted as a seed is starting to bloom. I almost lost it when I transplanted it to a larger pot, but it (and my tomato plant) are rallying. I also have a couple of ears of corn starting to develop. Do I get a big "congratulations!" and maybe some balloons? Or a bottle of Glenlivet?

I am surprised the sunflower can handle being in a pot. They have huge root systems. Congratulations on being so productive.

Well, my 'normal' gift for a new parent is a handmade baby blanket. I am not sure how that would work in this case, but if you think Baby Sunflower would benefit from a baby blanket, let me know and I will see what I can do.
