Interesting Facts
Most people think that the sunflower name is based on the direction of sunrise and sunset. However, this is not the case. Blooming sunflowers face east and do not rotate in the direction of the sun. Nevertheless, the misconception that it faces the sun is deeply embedded in people's minds. Therefore, it is commonly called a sunflower. Wild versions of the plant branch out to many flower heads, but domesticated plants typically only have one.
In culture: These flowers were worshipped by the ancient Incas, and today they represent an eco-friendly movements.
Vincent Van Gogh made a famous series of paintings about common sunflowers.

日本語: これらの花は古代インカによって崇拝されていました、そして今日それらは環境に優しい運動を表しています。 ほとんどの人は、ひまわりの名前は日の出と日の入りの方向に基づいていると思います。 ただし、そうではありません。 成熟したヒマワリは東向きで、太陽の方向に回転しません。 それにもかかわらず、太陽に面しているという誤解は、人々の心に深く根付いています。 そのため、一般的にひまわりと呼ばれています。 野生植物は多くの頭花に枝分かれしますが、家畜化された植物は通常1つの花しか持っていません。
