zero waste sunflower!

You might think each sunflower is just a single bloom, but each flowerhead is actually made up of up to two thousand florets. These tiny flowers are packed full of nectar, making them a great treat for bees as well.
Almost every part of this flower is edible including young leaves which can be cooked like spinach and the whole head could be roasted when still fresh.
Making butter with sunflower seeds it’s a great healthy alternative to peanut butter and you could make it savoury or sweet depending on your taste.

They had sprouted and after a 1st harvest they currently have 10 chilis. The thought that 3 little seeds made more and I didn’t pay for them just blew my mind. I now have herbs, micro greens, fruits and other plants along with flowers growing in my house. Seems simple, but I discovered I got not only my mothers green thumb but a common understanding of loving nature and the connection between man and plant.

An interesting fun fact about sunflowers for you all.. Sunflowers clean the soil of radioactivity. A sunflower does not discriminate between radioactivity and certain nutrients. Oftentimes the radioactive isotope mimics the naturally-occurring nutrient. Sunflowers then pull the isotope out of the soil and into their stems and leaves, effectively cleaning the soil.
