Sunflower

Rogue Valley, Oregon

Sunflowers always make me think of autumn, harvest time and roasting the seeds in the oven. Along
with daisies they are one of the 'happiest feeling' flowers. Sunflower facts: Sunflowers are among
the leading cash crops grown in the United States and are the most practical and diverse.
Cultivated around the globe for thousands of years, they have been used to produce a myriad of
products--- cooking oil, medicine, paint, animal feed, biodiesel--- and as an inexpensive and
effective means of cleaning toxins from the environment.
