Support Ukraine
| Kelsi: |
| The sunflower, Ukraine’s national flower, is becoming a global symbol of solidarity. The sunflower has long held a meaningful place in the hearts of many Ukrainians as the national flower. But since Russia invaded their country last week, the plant has become a global symbol of resistance, unity and hope. |
