The wild sunflower has approximately 67 different species (and various subspecies), all of which can be found in the United States.
The Nevada desert is not at all like that - it's alive with colour, mile upon mile of wild sunflowers grow along the roadside and yucca, aloe vera and Joshua trees grow in the sandy soil above acres of bright yellow flowers that give the whole landscape a golden glow.
For example, in 1998, Randal Linder of the University of Texas at Austin and his colleagues, including Snow, reported their study of wild sunflower patches that had grown near farmed sunflowers for up to 40 years.
