The original sentence incorrectly uses 'and' repeatedly and has a repeated phrase 'not only not only'. Also, 'it' is used incorrectly to refer to multiple plants. The sentence is corrected by splitting into two sentences, using 'they' to refer to plants, and properly structuring the 'not only... but also' construction.

Also, 'sunflower' should be plural 'sunflowers' as multiple plants are implied.
