Even though we could only find one place that sold flowers in Campo Dei Fiori we found a pretty wide selection. When we bought all the flowers I was pretty curious to see if they would all comply with the Fibonnaci numbers. Our flowers lost a few petals on the way so hopefully the numbers we counted are all right! Math is far from my favorite subject but this made it fun and interesting. I actually wanted to learn more about this and it surprised me. The flowers we bought contained: a red rose-13 petals, a mum-144, sunflower-32, yellow lily-6( even thought this is not one of the number there were three petals with spots and three plain ones.), daisy-34, and a gardenia-21.
