Came across this little chap growing in the gutter just up the road from us

  1. We had one near us on a roundabout, made it about 6 foot high before it was stolen/ destroyed

  3. I love the way plants will grow pretty well anywhere. Our council doesn’t sweep the roads either and there are several ash trees and buddleias popping up alongside the pavements.

  4. That’ll be the council’s re-wilding program

  6. Sunflowers are like tomatoes in my experience. The ones I plant and look after just seem to never grow but the self seeded ones seem to grow like that plant from the little shop of horrors

  7. A bird dropped a seed in our garden and now we have a great little sunflower!

  8. I put in effort to grow them intentionally but they pop up in random pavements around town 🤓

  9. I usually start singing oh ohhhhhhh vitalite, when I see a sunflower, today is no exception.

  11. I’ve had a shit week. I really needed a smile. Thank you.

  14. We had a good size tomato plant sprout up between a garden wall and pavement one year, must have been a runaway tomato from a bin bag or something but anyway once it got noticeable someone made a little picket fence round it and a note to please let nature do her work. Turns out it was one of those giant tomato 🍅 plants and it lived to a full life and provided some tasty tomatoes. So glad some little shit didn’t ruin it 😌 🤗

  16. Ops, someone dropped their snack on the way home from Holland & Barrett ;))

  17. I definitely would play it some music to see what happens.

  18. Some of us are in the gutter but we’re looking up at the sun.
