The only flower with a flower in it’s name
Aptly named after the sun
The sun the main source of natural light
The only plant species that face the sun
To track its movement to optimise the use of light

You hold meanings of wisdom and perfection
You symbolise loyalty and adoration
You bloom during the summer and you are forever bright
You stand tall even on darkest days and find sunlight
You represent inspiration

You and Black-eyed Susa are not the same
You are between five to ten feet in height
In late spring you germinate and you are an annual plant
You excrete sweet sticky sap that attracts hungry ants
You are unique and a multi-purpose plant.
