Sunflowers

[cloughie89]

Hi Everyone,

After pestering you all earlier this year for Poppy field locations, I'm now after a field of Sunflowers in Gloucestershire/Worcestershire area, or further afield within reason. I used to have one very close but it's no longer being used for that purpose

All help appreciated, thanks.

Wheres your pics of the poppy fields?

Most farmers rotate crops, so a field that had sunflowers in last year may have wheat in this year. You may find though the same farm is still planting sunflowers but in a different field.

I was in Lincolnshire last week and noticed that the sunflowers were only just flowering, so you may be a bit early for any spectacular shots at the moment.

Yeah, i appreciate that farmers do rotate crops, but the field near me was sunflowers every year, so me thinks they've just stopped doing sunflowers

And you're right about it being a little early, thought i'd get in quick and get people looking If i don't find any i'll just have to settle for one of the neighbours gardens

Thanks for your help

Try the Broadway Hill, above the Vale of Evesham

Thanks, I'll be taking a look as soon as that sun puts it hat on again

Lovely part of the world too!
