Sunflowers

Sunflowers are a type of flower that is known for its bright yellow petals and large, round shape. They are native to North and South America, but are now grown all over the world.

Physical Characteristics

Sunflowers can grow up to 12 feet tall and have a diameter of up to 30 inches. They have large, dark green leaves and a thick stem. The flower head is made up of hundreds of small flowers called florets, which are surrounded by bright yellow petals.

Uses

Sunflowers are often grown for their seeds, which are used for food and oil. The seeds can be roasted and eaten as a snack, or used to make sunflower oil, which is used in cooking and as a base for cosmetics and soaps.

Sunflowers are also used as ornamental plants in gardens and as cut flowers in floral arrangements.

Symbolism

Sunflowers are often associated with happiness, warmth, and positivity. They are also a symbol of loyalty and longevity.

In some cultures, sunflowers are used in spiritual practices and are believed to have healing properties.
