The sunflower is one of the most present plants on the fields in Romania, and this is not surprising at all, considering the beauty of these flowers and the numerous purposes they are used for.
Planting sunflowers is an extremely simple procedure, and the results are very satisfactory, considering the speed of growth and the high degree of independence that these plants have, as they hardly need any care.
In very fertile soil and with good sun exposure, these plants can reach over 2 m in about 6 months, and a sunflower head can provide up to 2,000 seeds.
The sunflower is a plant that deserves its name, as it will move throughout the day, orienting itself towards the sun.
Sunflower plantations produce cooking oil, seeds, and biodiesel.
