Although this is hardly surprising given the history of these unique plants. Brought to Europe in the 15th century by one of Columbus's expeditions, the bright yellow, orange-red flowers were sown in the Madrid Botanical Garden. They were universally admired, celebrated in poetry, depicted on canvases, murals, stained glass windows, bas-reliefs, and tiles. The famous Flemish artist Van Dyck painted a self-portrait holding a "sunflower." Vincent van Gogh's painting "Sunflowers" is world-famous.
Ornamental sunflower is a wonderful cut flower!
When setting it up, use a vase with a weighted bottom or place a small weight on the bottom to prevent it from tipping over. Before placing the flowers in the vase, singe or scald the stems.
