Maximilian Sunflower / Helianthus maximilianii


On 14th August 2005, a few of us came across a couple of plants of Maximilian Sunflower out at Frank Lake, in the area where the blind (and port-a-potties) are. We don't normally get this species of Sunflower, so this was quite a thrill. On September 3rd this month, I went with a group of friends to Frank Lake for birding, and couldn't believe how these Sunflowers had spread. Now there is a huge patch of them and they looked so beautiful! I've noticed various spellings for this species - Maximillan Sunflower, Maximilian's, Maximillan's, etc.. As you can see, the weather was great that day : ) A thoroughly enjoyable day out - thanks so much, Janet and Bernie!
