A beautiful bed of 333 sunflowers was just installed in New York City in support of Ukraine
A new installation featuring 333 sunflowers has just been set up at the Flatiron Plaza on 23rd Street between Fifth Avenue and Broadway, right across from Madison Square Park, in support of the Ukrainian cause.
Now through Sunday, January 22, Ukraine's Day of Unity, passerby will get to glance at the stunning field filled with the country's national flower, also a symbol of peace, happiness and hope.
The exact number of blooms installed isn't random: they represent the number of days that the current war with Russia has been going on for.
Folks are encouraged to snap a photo of the sunflowers and post it to social media in an effort to raise awareness for the cause during this horrible time. Those who can't make it to the area or aren't in New York can join the conversation by uploading a general photo of a sunflowers and using the hashtag #UnifyUkraine.
