There are open fields not far from me, normally planted with cotton but this time there's corn, a lot of it. Excellent conditions for that crop, with high soil moisture and more rain likely later this week, and a drastic drop in our high temperatures. My own crop of sunflowers is doing very well, recovering from the recent barrage of small hail. I look out my window here, and see a sea of green, a jungle. So gratifying! And I made no effort to plant anything. The sunflowers come back, year after year with no effort on my part. The effort comes much later when I have to deal with the dead stalks, but there won't be that many this time, since I've kept things under better control.
