Description
This women's tee is made from 6.1 oz 100% ring-spun US cotton in a boxy, slightly cropped mid-length cut. It features a topstitched ribbed collar, shoulder-to-shoulder twill tape, a seamless body, and a double-needle bottom hem. Dyed with OEKO-TEX certified low-impact dyes in a WRAP-certified facility, using a salt-free clean pigment process that uses about half the water of conventional pigment dyeing. Boxy fit, sizes S–2XL — it runs close to the body, so size up for a looser drape. Slight shade variation between garments is normal.

Meet common sunflower
Helianthus annuus L.
Common sunflower combines a wild North American ancestry with a long history of cultivation for food and oil. Many wild plants branch, whereas familiar crop forms may have a single dominant stem and head. Young developing heads can track the sun, but open, mature heads generally settle facing east rather than continuing to follow it. Kew Species Profile: Helianthus annuus
Native range
The species is native to North America. Kew’s current checklist places its native core in the southwestern United States and Mexico, while extensive cultivation and naturalization have carried it far beyond that area. Wild or escaped plants commonly occupy roadsides and other disturbed open ground. Kew Plants of the World Online: Helianthus annuusUSDA Forest Service: A Field Guide to Plants
Ecological relationships
Bees pollinate the flowers. Kew Species Profile: Helianthus annuus
Mature seeds also provide food for birds, including mourning doves in North American sunflower stands. USDA Forest Service: A Field Guide to Plants
