Description
While the vibrant, strong sunflower is recognized worldwide for its beauty, it is also an important source of food. Sunflower oil is a valued and healthy vegetable oil and sunflower seeds are enjoyed as a healthy, tasty snack and nutritious ingredient to many foods. The seeds and plants also provide food for birds and livestock. While the fronts of the sunflowers in a local sunflower field were quite beautiful, I also found the details on the back of the flowers interesting to view.
