Sunflowers are native to North America and have captivated artists for centuries—most famously Van Gogh, who painted dozens of studies celebrating their bold form and golden warmth. These flowers follow the sun across the sky in their youth, a phenomenon called heliotropism, and their seed heads display a remarkable natural spiral pattern that has fascinated mathematicians and naturalists alike for generations.
