Measuring a Tall Sunflower in a Botanical Garden

Within a botanical garden, a girl wearing a hat checks the height of a towering sunflower. Giant sunflowers often grow well above human height during late summer, making them standout features in garden plant collections.

The Growth Habits of Sunflowers

Sunflowers exhibit a phenomenon known as heliotropism, where young plant heads turn throughout the day to follow the path of the sun across the sky. Once the heavy flower head fully matures and blooms, it typically settles facing toward the east.

Natural Colors of Giant Sunflowers

  • Sunflower petals: vibrant bright yellow or golden orange
  • Sunflower center disk: dark brown or black containing tiny florets
  • Sunflower stem and leaves: sturdy medium green
  • Girl's hat: natural woven straw, tan, or light beige
