💡 Did you know?
Sunflowers are heliotropic, meaning their blooms follow the sun throughout the day!
💐 They are not only beautiful but also provide food for birds, as their seeds are rich in oils.
🌈 Sunflowers can grow up to 12 feet tall, making them a dramatic focal point in gardens.
✨ Easy to grow and care for, sunflowers thrive in full sun and well-drained soil.
