Sunflowers (Helianthus annuus) are annual plants native to the Americas, that possess a large inflorescence (flowering head). Sunflower stems can grow as high as 3m (10 ft), and the flower head can reach 30 cm (11.8 in) in diameter with large edible seeds. The term "sunflower" is also used to refer to all plants of the genus Helianthus, many of which are perennial plants.

Hello just wanted to invite anyone who is interested to visit a sister club “A Sunflower Club” -http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/group.php?gid=70753878075 - one idea we’ve been thinking about is making a family tree of sunflowers, so maybe we could connect our clubs by exchanging seeds or something. We are in the U.S.
