The suffix -ivore means eater. While herbi- means herbs or plants. -Omni means all. A herbivore eats only plants and an omnivore eats anything. Humans are omnivores since we can and do eating anything. Plants like sunflowers don't eat anything. They make their own food using sunlight.
You really should learn the meaning of words like these since you come across them over and over again. They actually tell you what they mean.

∙ 6y agoThe sunflower is an annual plant in the family Asteraceaeis. There are several varieties. The sunflower is a single stalked flower that produces seeds. The seeds are much used for feeding parrots, wild birds, and various pets such as rats, mice and hamsters, etc., as part of a mixed diet. The seeds can be used in cooking and will be on sale in health stores, either as seeds or as an oil. So, in a way, it is a kind of herb in cooking, but definitely not a shrub or a tree.

Is it true that sunflower is an herbal plant?
Short answer: YES, the sunflower can be considered an herb. The sunflower (Helianthus annuus) is a flowering annual dicot. As an annual, it is a herbaceous plant instead of a woody plant. It is no longer used as a medicinal herb, as it was by Native Americans many centuries ago. An herb is defined as any plant used for flavoring, food, medicine or perfume. The sunflower seed is used for human food, and the sunflower leaf and seed can be used for livestock feed; therefore, the sunflower can be classified as an herb.
