Mexican Sunflower

Mexican Sunflowers, also known as the "Fiesta de Sol" or "Tithonia" flower are an Award-winning bright orange flower that yields dozens of showy daisy-like flowers in a single plant, almost creating a hedge.

Planting Instructions:

Easy germination. Sow seeds in Spring just below the soil surface at 70F. Keep moist. Water seedlings occasionally until they become established; since they need good drainage. mature plants grow well in drought and poor soil. Soil that is too rich and moist and will have a negative effect. If planted in a windy location, staking or support may be necessary. Deadhead this wildflower to prolong the blooming season. This plant will self-seed occasionally in good growing conditions.
