Flowers of Raleigh

I think this sunflower garden Raleigh has every year in Dix Park is fantastic. I have tried to get someone to do this in Charlotte. We have acres of vacant land uptown that could easily be turned into a huge field temporarily. How long do they last? I might try to come up in about 2 weeks or so?

I think you’re good between now and early August.

They aren’t full bloom yet. Some rows aren’t bloomed at all. You should be good for a while.
The bees are going to town.

Are these from last year? Last year’s crop was shorter than this year’s.

2021-2024. I could not get the kids to pose for pictures last year, but I got some of the flowers.

We all got too cool to take pictures for mom and dad at some point. RIP!!! Good luck this time around- maybe some time at the Gipson Play Plaza will help you negotiate better now.
