Sunflower

The sunflower is one of the most special flowers of the summer, for its color and for its country aspect and for the movement that it makes from east to west in search of the sun. The sunflower is the symbol of the Sun and symbolizes love and admiration.

Sunflower comes from North and South America. The seeds of these flowers served as food for the Indians, who mixed them with beans and tender corn. The original name of the sunflower is Helianthum, which arises from a combination helios (sun) and anthos (flower).
