Even if you aren’t a huge flower aficionado, there’s something special about the sunflower. Its beautiful bright yellow petals are so cheerful, and younger plants’ tendency to follow the sun is truly fascinating. Did you know that the flowers of sunflowers are not actually flowers? The large disc-like object that we think of as a flower is actually made up of many tiny flowers. They have evolved into a larger flower shape so as to better attract pollinators! If you’re looking for somewhere to see sunflowers in New York, North Fork Sunflower Maze in Mattituck is a great option and it’s full of these interesting and gorgeous flowers.
