Sunflowers ?

[VioletDove]

I planted a few sunflowers several years ago. They must like my soil here because they’ve since started popping up everywhere. My husband and I often disagree on whether or not to pull them up when we see them growing in our garden. He sees them as a nuisance but I think they are pretty and I like to let them grow.

Talking about stuff popping up.

My Bellah went for a trek in the woods today. I had to go after her, and found about six unfamiliar plants growing out there. 

They turned out to be papaya trees. I don't know how they got there, but I remember my Mother was given three papaya from a neighbor, but that was over six months ago. 

She doesn't remember throwing the seeds out there, and it is not a section of the woods that we frequent, so I am going to blame the rabbits. Or should I thank the rabbits?

One year we were surprised with a harvest of Seminole pumpkins. You never know what is going to pop up here in the woods.

What a nice find! I’ve recently found several “weeds” here that are good to eat. I just made some wild violet jelly today. Nothing as exciting as a papaya tree though. Good Bellah for leading you out there!
