I expect the birds will suss them out Ray whatever they are we have moon daisies growing wild. I remember a little lad asking his dad what they were and had to smile, His dad said they be great big daisies. Very educational I thought.

Sunflowers are so perfectly named and the really tall ones are
glorious. I used to grow them in Sydney...here I grow smaller varieties that have more and more flowers.
It was a no breath day here too and Wiley found it much nicer inside with the A/C...me too.

Raye, its a dangerous breathing day here too today...
Temp is 90F but with the humidity factored in it feels like 110F...not a good day for a walk.

Re: Sunflowers, perhaps?
Raintree, I thought so at first, but my memory (which may be faulty, lol) seems to recall sunflowers being much, much bigger. Perhaps these flowers were a minature-ish version - still very eye catching and inspiring, especially considering the locations where they have popped up.
Great to hear from you...

Amen! They do indeed! And that is why when I buy my next house, in the desert, I am going with indigenous plants for their radiant beauty as opposed to trying to have grass, such a waste of water! sam
