A \emph{sunflower} is a collection of sets whose pairwise intersections are identical. In this article, we shall go sunflower-picking. We find sunflowers in several seemingly unrelated fields, before turning to discuss recent progress on the famous sunflower conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and Rado, made by Alweiss, Lovett, Wu and Zhang.
The current version fixes some typos and minor errors.

The current version uses better notation that simplifies some equations.

We find sunflowers in several seemingly unrelated fields, before turning to discuss recent progress on the famous sunflower conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and Rado, made by Alweiss, Lovett, Wu and Zhang, as well as a related resolution of the \emph{threshold vs expectation threshold conjecture} of Kahn and Kalai discovered by Park and Pham. We give short proofs for both of these results.
The resolution of the conjecture of Kahn and Kalai is now discussed. A short and self-contained proof of both the conjecture and the sunflower bound is added.
