Someone recently said that Sunflowers are happy flowers. I think so too. I am thrilled with my first one that has opened to the sunshine and I am looking forward in seeing more open up! (stay away Mr. Jack Frost!)
I will see you again tomorrow!
Keep smiling and be happy!

They symbolize happiness and optimism giving rise to why they are favored for being given as a gift. There are eight colours of sunflower each with its unique symbolism.
