A quick sunflower update.

[whatho]

Runtface has been transplanted into a pot all by himself, to heal. He is in splendid isolation. He is also approximately 1 inch high, is finally looking more or less upright and has developed a strange brown stain all along one side of his stem. Poor Runtface.

Sunflowers 1 (Rudelypinioned), 2 (Ironicdutchess) and 3 (Slemslempike) are all approximately the same height, and that seems to be about 8 inches today. It's hard to tell because they're a bit bendy. Those three are all developing their second sets of leaves. Sunflower 4 (Siggen1) is about 7 inches, as is Sunflower 8 (Jendleberry). Sunflower 5 (Alicamel) is a bit of a weed at maybe 3 and a half inches. Sunflower 6 (Calapine) is perhaps 4 inches. Sunflower 7 (Jessandi) - about 6 inches.

I might try and take photographs but be prepared for a certain degree of abject failure.

*NEWSFLASH*

Calapine (6) has been surreptitiously OVERTAKEN by Alicamel (5) in a matter of merely a few hours. I cannot explain. Also I took some very blurry photographs and don't know how to upload them and will have to spend ages tomorrow poking various buttons and seeing what happens, but this isn't really part of the newsflash.

I have no sunflower and this is very sad. But I am rooting for Sunflower 6 because this is a good number, and sunflower 9, because that is a good number too, if a little bit odd. SOrry. Can never resist. Um. But yes.

For photos it is very very easy. You can upload to your lj scrapbook because you are a paid user, so there is a link on your user info, and you just browse for it on your computer and it'll put it in.

Then when your photo is on the screen, scrapbook has slightly complicated instructions for posting, but the simple way is jsut to right click on it and select 'view picture', and then in your post to use the code:

[img src=http://www.url.here.com] but with the points not the squares, and voila! Picture. Yes. Behind a cut, probably;) Hurrah:)

Scrapbook! Yay! Hurrah! Thank you thank you lots. I shall do these things on the morrow. Behind a cut. Yes.

You can have a bonsai tree seedling! Be warned that it may be more angstful. I had a woeful time with bonsai tree seedlings last year. And rooting for sunflowers is good too.

Oooh, yay for bonsai seedlings:) I will look forward to the slower and possibly tragic fate of footing for a bonsai:)
