Sunflower is one of the few crop species that originated in North America. It was probably a "camp follower" of several of the western native American tribes who domesticated the crop and then carried it eastward and southward of North America. The first Europeans observed sunflower cultivated in many places from southern Canada to Mexico.
Sunflowers are annuals with showy, daisylike flowerheads that are usually 2-4 inches across and bright yellow (though occasionally red). Tall and course, the plants have creeping or tuberous roots and large, bristly leaves. Today, varieties have even been developed for small spaces and containers. Most sunflowers are remarkably tough and easy to grow as long as the soil is not waterlogged. Most are heat- and drought-tolerant, and many are attractive to bees and birds.
The Sunflower makes an excellent cut flower. It provides a bright splash of sunny color to a home, whether inside or out, and makes cheerful spring and summer centerpieces. Sunflowers are gestures of goodwill and friendship, making them perfect gifts for any friend or loved one having a tough day.
