They are extremely tall and graceful and bloom for months, not like their fat relatives in the fields around here. 😂 #helianthusannuus #mysunflowersareblooming #stillblooming #sunflowers🌻 #sunflowersinitaly #italy🇮🇹 #organicgardening #provinciadimantova #americanplants #asteraceae #sowyourown #sowitandgrowit #gyo #botanicalbeauty #summergarden #associazioneculturalereadingretreatsinruralitaly #readingretreatsinruralitaly (presso La Macchina Fissa) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRn136pLtKa/?utm_medium=tumblr

Here in Italy, sowing seeds gathered in America of the Asian "Boston Ivy". Common plant names crack me up. It is also known as "Japanese creeper", geographically correct but a bit funny in its own right. "Did you see how he was looking at her? What a Japanese Creeper!" 😂 #bostonivy #sowyourown #sowitandgrowit #japaneseplants #asianplants #beautifulclimbingvine #autumncolors #sowyearround #parthenocissustricuspidata #vitaceae (presso La Macchina Fissa) https://www.instagram.com/p/CXHgl40oqoh/?utm_medium=tumblr

Little October pumpkins are ready to harvest in July. We could get lots of these. The vines are growing all over the pumpkin tunnel. Sad to see the first spots of mold on the leaves, but those little pumpkins make me smile. ☺ #littleoctoberpumpkins #botanicalinterestsseeds #mezzogiardiniere #inmygardentoday #zuccheornamentali #zucchesimpatiche #zucchepiccine #lamacchinafissa #organicgardening #sowyourown #grownfromseeds #growyourownfood (presso La Macchina Fissa) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRPV5lALBrN/?utm_medium=tumblr

The broom corn from @botanical_interests is so beautiful as it opens up! Just one packet of seeds was enough to make a fantastic show here at La Macchina Fissa. I can't wait to see the colours of the seeds as they become shiny and dark, and then the surprise of popping them in a pan like popcorn! 😍☺#sorghumbicolor #broomcorn #botanicalinterestsseeds #mezzogiardiniere #sowitandgrowit #organicgardening #notonlypumpkins #pumpkinparadise #ortifelici #ortimantovani #ruralitaliangardens #ruralitaly #sowyourown #gardenersofitaly #mantua (presso La Macchina Fissa) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRGcIInLvYZ/?utm_medium=tumblr
