Sunflowers can grow to astounding heights – the world record for the tallest stands at a staggering 30 feet.

There are over 70 different varieties of sunflower including the Russian mammoth, the elf, the teddy bear and the moulin rouge.

Sunflowers have many uses. The seeds provide food for us and wild birds, under-threat British bees love the pollen and nectar - and sunflower oil is extracted for cooking and use in beauty products. Native Americans used certain types of sunflower medicinally for respiratory ailments.
