Helianthus annuus
The next set of sunflower blooms will soon be open to follow the sun. The sunflower is named for its ability to follow the sun in the course of a day. It has a rough, hairy stem, broad, coarsely toothed, rough leaves and circular heads of flowers. The heads consist of many individual flowers which mature into seeds, often in the hundreds, on a receptacle base.
Wildlife habitat with many native plants.
