Sunflower: State Flower of Kansas
Symbolism: Loyalty, Hope
From Van Gogh to Gustav Klimt, the Sunflower adorns the art world with golden petals of inspiration.
In Greek mythology, the story of the sunflower comes from Apollo, the god of the sun, who would drive it across the sky, and doing so, caught the eye of Clyntie, a doting nymph. When he rejected her, she sat in the same spot, just watching his path, until finally, sitting in the same place long enough, she transformed into a flower - the sunflower - and her devoted gaze continued to follow him, still.
Buddhists tie the sunflower to enlightenment, where it matches our human quest to follow the light.
