How to use this prompt

The seed head is the scientific detail, so describe its pattern: 'seeds arranged in a spiral pattern at the centre, from brown to dark green.' That spiral is how real sunflower heads grow and it gives the illustration credibility. Show the flower at a three-quarter angle with some petals curling, which looks drawn from life. Place the bee toward the upper right as a counterweight to the large flower head. Put 'photograph, labels, text, bright white background' in the negative prompt. For a series, keep the cream paper and swap the flower.

Variations to try

Wildflower bouquet — sunflower with poppies and daisies for a cheerful print
