Day 1: It's Going to be Twins/One Ate the Other

Day 1: Today I was given two sunflower seeds to grow. Here there are! Their first picture! Stay tuned for more on the "Twins!"
On 2/11/14, the twins were planted and I waited for Cruz and Ann to grow. 


2/15/14
Day 4: One of my twins (Cruz) has begun to sprout. I wait eagerly to see if the other (Ann) will sprout as well. 
Cruz is at a small 1 cm.


2/21/14
Day 10: Ann has not sprouted and I have come to terms that Cruz has eaten his sister and will be left handed. Cruz however is now at 1 in, and I fear that he may be a small, wee sunflower. 


2/24/14
Day 13: Cruz has hit a growth spurt and is now 3 1/2 inches tall! He loves his home on the sun porch and it has been extremely vital for his growth.  


3/16/14
Day 34: Cruz has been a little camera shy lately due to his growth spurt that has left him tall and lanky and awkwardly taller than all his plantmates. However, after a couple of weeks of awkward teen stages, he is now more mature and is ready for the spot light. He is not 6 1/4 inches tall.


4/8/14
Day 57: Cruz is now at 10 1/2 inches! He is standing up straight and his very bottom two leaves have wilted, but two more have sprouted higher up his stem. He still loves the sun porch and is thriving there.
