Owen grew and photographed this

Eleven-year-old Owen grew this ‘Sunzilla’ sunflower and it towered over him. He recently cut it down to harvest the seeds, but many of the shells were empty. Seeds courtesy Renee’s Garden Seeds.

. . . some gardens are more fantastic than others, and a very few are so fantastic that they seem to be more about fantasy than about gardening. Like a play within a play, these gardens comment on the nature of illusion, the mechanics of mesmerization, the mystery of why and how the simple act of cordoning off space and time can charge them so highly with meaning.
