Sunflowers - Autumn Beauty

Sunflowers - Autumn Beauty

Leaves are not the only deep orange-brown colors of the autumn splendor.  This variety of sunflower kicks off the beauty of the fall season.  What I really adore about this sunflower type are the petals - the back of each petal is either yellow or a lighter orange, which is a wonderful contrast to the dark burnt orange of the petal's front side (the picture with the caption shows this lighter color the best).

Out of the three sunflower varieties that I grew this year, I honestly would not be able to pick a favorite - they are all so beautiful!  Enjoy the pictures below:
