Menlo Park resident Robin Tobias (who owns Tobias Physical Therapy on Crane St.) planted sunflowers in her University Heights garden this year — and the results are spectacular.
“This is the first year of planting a whole bed of sunflowers!” Robin explains. “I wanted to see smiles every morning in my garden.
“I started 100 of them from seed in a tray, and on my birthday [my daughter] Leah and [her friend]Juan helped me transfer them into the ground. It was great fun, and every time I looked outside I was reminded of their visit here.
“I got every kind of sunflower seed I could find at Wegman’s and planted them in height order. I loved the Honey Bears — they are the gorgeous bushy golden ones.
“Some of them have more than one blossom, so I’m guessing about 150 in all. For sure I am doing this again next year!”
