Description
A striking russet and yellow sunflower blooms brightly toward the sun. Photographed at the Wildwood Farm in Williamsburg, Virginia. This photo looks exceptionally nice on most all of the products offered through FAA!
Sunflower facts: Sunflower is the only flower that has the word ‘flower’ in its name.
While these flowers are large and yellow, like the sun, that’s not where they got their name from. They’re called sunflowers because they follow the sun across the sky each day.
While you and I call them sunflowers, their scientific name is ‘Helianthus.’ Literally translated, Helia means “sun” and Anthus means “flower.”
The sunflower is the state flower of Kansas.
