Sunflowers

Sunflowers are one of the few plants that have the ability for their heads to actually turn and "follow the path of the sun" during the day. The tallest sunflower ever grown reached a height of 7 meters (24 feet)! Sunflowers have been used for their oil for centuries. But no part of the sunflwoer went to waste; the sunflower stems were used to fill life jackets.
