The number of spiral floret formations visible in many sunflowers…and segments on the surface of a pineapple have been found to match Fibonacci numbers (Time). To make a C-major chord, you can play the third note of the octave (E), the fifth note (G), and the eighth note (C). So your chord is made up of notes 3, 5, and 8, a Fibonacci series (Diane Sherman).
