Description

Tithonia rotundifolia is a Mexican native. An annual in any region with freezing winters. It’s an amazing butterfly attractant and nectar plant. Brilliant yellow (or Orange) flowers continue forming until a heavy freeze. Plants grow very quickly and fill a large space. Easily grow 5′- 7′ tall with many branches. Can be trimmed to stay smaller. Drought tolerant once established due to a long tap root. A very low maintenance plant. Dried pods can be collected to have seeds for next year.

Sowing: When ground warms into the upper 60s and 70s, loosen soil and sow seeds, covering with 1/4″ of soil. Keep watered until germination is underway. Usually within 7-10 days. Plant 18-24″ apart. Can also be started indoors 6 weeks before planting outdoors.
