We associate sunflowers with a long life, good fortune, beauty, and vitality!
The sunflower's name comes from its tendency to reposition itself to face our beautiful and powerful star, the Sun!
Facing the Sun is observed only in young flowers, which need to get the most light-energy to bloom. That is the reason why they face towards the Sun.
Heliotropism (from the Greek language) is the term used to describe the tracking of the Sun by the flower buds of sunflowers.
Today I went to the farmer marker and found these beautiful sunflowers! Decorating your house with these sweet flowers will bring a bright, yellow, energetic beauty to your home!
To many Native American groups, sunflowers represent harvest, bounty, and provisions because they provided seeds, pigment, and medical uses.
Sunflowers are a very easy plant to grow! ;-)
I find comfort in contemplating the beautiful and bright yellow colors, I truly love Mother Nature and I find beauty everywhere!!!
Isn't it amazing how the Sunflower looks just like the Sun itself?!
