Sunflowers have two flower types: disc and ray flowers. The spiral pattern one sees in the disc flowers is an example of a Fibonacci series and a beautiful math lesson for us all.. There are ...

Artists and poets have long been inspired by the mathematical patterns found in nature—for instance, the remarkable fact that a sunflower's seeds follow the Fibonacci sequence. But there are ...

Stanley is dropping the new Oasis Collection with stripes, sunflower patterns and more fun in the sun. Here's when you can grab these new cheery Quencher tumblers.

A new sunflower-inspired pattern increases concentrated solar efficiency. Just outside Seville, in the desert region of Andalucia, Spain, sits an oasis-like sight: a 100-meter-high pillar ...

The pattern of seeds within a sunflower follows the Fibonacci sequence, or 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144...   If you remember back to math class, each number in the sequence is the ...

The resulting pattern also features a number of distinctive families of spirals–families that correspond to the numbers 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 12, 17, 29, 41, 70, 99, and so on.

Whether it's the mathematics of sunflower patterns or the plant biology behind it that interests you most, you can thank Turing for both. If it wasn't for Turing, ...
