I once read that sunflowers face each other on a cloudy day to share their energy. Such a lovely notion but as I researched it, I learned that it is completely false!
However, during my research I received a great education on the true complexity of the sunflower!
I learned there is far more to the sunflower than just a beautiful flower that makes us all smile. I studied about the Fibonacci sequence of seeds, the facts of heliotropism, the composition of ray flowers and disk flowers, and why pollenless flowers have become popular (but are they good for the pollinators?).
During my research I learned that a sunflowers complexity is its truth!
Few flowers stir up so many positive emotions as sunflowers do! For most people sunflowers represent everything that is good, pure, joyful, happy, and positive. For others there is romanticism and a bit of melancholy.
For many sunflower fans, the desire to find serenity while wandering through a field of sunflower sunshine is a compelling escape that they want to experience for themselves!
The creation of Sunflower Serenity is to unearth sunflower truth in an organized and entertaining way.
My hope is that as you explore each page of this website that you will learn something new and fall more in love with the lovely sunflower!
Thank you for joining me on this journey!
