These are male flowers for "gooligan" pumpkins. The little white ones. Strictly decorative. The bees are absolutely drunk on these. 
Cut back twice and on it's third bloom, a very fragrant rose that has a some mint nearby - incredibly fragrant area here!
A "star flower" marked as a "tender perennial" - nice while they last.

I wonder if more sunflower seeds sprouted, but then the rabbits or some other critter ate the young plants? That happens in my garden sometimes.
Thanks for joining in for bloom day.

I never heard of a star flower or a male gooligan-- hmmm...
What wonderful sunflowers. I've been checking mine daily for the past week. They keep getting taller and taller but the buds remain firmly closed--soooooon.
Enjoyed visting your GBBD post.

I had some good luck with my sunflower spacing last year too. I had four at my new house, all pretty.
