Hi Everyone! So sorry I've haven't been over for a while! And I'm extra sorry now after realizing I missed this contest!! I've gotten all your nice messages and thanks a bunch for sending them!!! Theres some sunflower seeds floating around here that I saved out of Bella and Cocos breakfast mix so maybe they'll turn into something amazing and will be a winner :D I've got some dwarf 'Teddy Bear' sunflower seeds too, think they still have time to bloom?

Hello Steven, I knew if we kept calling you, you would show up sooner or later. So nice to have you back. You must stop over at the cafe on 23 Cyber Street and say hello and have a cuppa.
I am sure you can pick a number from Terris plot of sunflowers although I think blossombuddy has the contest pretty much sown up!

Watseka, IL(Zone 5a)

Hi there Steven, welcome to the sunflower patch! Lovely to see Coco and Bella, looking as cute as ever!
I had some teddy bear sunflower seeds, but I think someone weeded them out!
If you would like a sunflower from our raffle, pick a number between 1 -25 and I will let you know if it's available!!
Here's the Sunflower patch, some have started to flower......
