General Plant Information
Sunflowers are usually tall annual or perennial plants. They have one or more broad terminal capitula (flower heads), with bright yellow ray florets on the outside and yellow or maroon (aka brown/red) disc florets on the inside. During growth, sunflowers lean during the day to face the sun, but stop once they begin to bloom. This tracking of the sun in young sunflower heads is called heliotropism. When ripe, sunflowers generally face east. The rough, hairy stem is branched at the top in wild plants, but is generally unbranched in domesticated cultivars. The petiolate leaves are toothed and often sticky. The lower leaves are opposite, ovate or often heart-shaped.
