Perhaps I need to take a closer look? Ah yes, it says, one franc per flower. Note the handy little box (attached to the pole) into which I'll need to leave the cash.
I think I'll get some. Where to begin?
There, we have them. Hmmm...time to do the math and count the blooms. Aaah! Nothing like fresh flowers.

There was a self-cueillette near our home in Corsier that the girls and I often walked or drove past. One night they insisted on buying their own sunflowers, so top-heavy they could barely hold them upright. I can still hear their francs as they clinked into the can.
For some reason the sunflowers this year started drooping and turning brown very soon after they bloomed. Such a shame. I would have loved to have picked some this year.
