Day 11: No other plant exhibits quite the same frivolity and disregard for organization as that which occurs in the disarray of a Sunflower's petals. Its wanton ability to dominate any garden with its bold display, its cheerful smile and open countenance give it a universal appeal. In its season, the heads are flagrantly gravid, rejoicing in life and perpetuation, offering themselves to both bird and beast with no fear for less than abundant survival. Those seeds missed by foragers spring up readily following winter, growing stronger with subsequent generations, joyous and vigorous avatars of the star which warms the Earth.
