The happiness of the sunflower flower

in #sumflower7 years ago

Summer days become truly festive with the flower that reigns on summer days: the sunflower.

If you had to put the name of a flower to the summer season ... which would you choose? Definately wins the sunflower!

And it is that the sunflower is one of the most special flowers of the summer, not only for its color and its country aspect, but for the movement that makes from east to west in search of the sun, known as helitropismo, as we already told you in the post about the sunflowers dance.


If we had to choose a flower as the maximum representative of summer, there is no doubt that it would be the sunflower.

It is not only its colorful appearance, but also the fact that it is the only flower that moves in search of the sun's rays (popularly known as the sunflowers dance). This makes it an ideal flower for the season and therefore, it is customary to send flower arrangements with sunflowers at these times of the year.

The sunflower is not only a beautiful flower but it keeps a captivating history. Greek mythology tells that the nymph Clytia fell in love with the Sun God, Apollo, who did not reciprocate his love. The nymph broke his heart and died of grief, transforming into a sunflower that followed the sun (Apollo) wherever it went. Therefore, giving sunflowers is the ultimate representation of unconditional love and fidelity.

In addition to the yellow sunflower, there are also orange, dark red, cream and brown versions.

As for the shape, you can find sunflowers with large and small flowers, with a single row of petals or with several.
