Not complaining, but I'm definitely over winter. To shake off the funk, I ordered some Crème Brûlée sunflower seeds from Burpee. Honestly, how could I not? Crème brûlée is one of my favorite desserts.
The catalog's description was the icing on the cake: "Bound to be the sweetest, most sophisticated sunflower on your block. Elegant crowns of golden-yellow petals surround fluffy, amber-bronze centers – a floral reflection of the caramelized sugar atop dessert classic ‘crème brûlée’. Refined plants stand 4-5’ tall with a bushy, branching habit and a continuous bounty of blooms. If you’re craving something new and spectacular for your border, this sunflower is for you."
Now I'm craving créme brûlée!
I think I prefer the bright yellow sunny colours - such a cheerful happy sight.
ReplyDeleteThe bright yellow sunflowers are my favorite, too, but I do like the fuzzy look of these.
DeleteSeed catalogs = winter grardeing.
ReplyDeleteYes! I'm so glad the seed/gardening companies still send out hard copy catalogs.
DeleteJust the word "sunflowers" makes me smile. I wish I had space to grow all kinds.
