MORE INFO: Name: Mexican Sunflower Scientific Name: Tithonia rotundifolia Color: Orange Hardiness Zones: 4-11 Plant Seeds: Outdoors After Frost or Indoors Weeks Before Last Frost Plant Height: 60"-75" Plant Spacing: 12 - 18" Cycle: Annual (Will reseed itself) Bloom Season - Fall, Summer Light Requirements: Full Sun Soil & Water Preferences: Average Other: Attracts bees, birds, & butterflies, Sowing: Direct sow in spring, pressing into the surface of the soil. Keep the soil lightly moist until germination, which usually occurs within 1-2 weeks. This plant can also be started indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost of spring. Growing: 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 will have a negative effect. If planted in a windy location, staking or support may be necessary. Deadhead to prolong the blooming season. This plant will self-seed occasionally in good growing conditions. It attracts hummingbirds and butterflies. Harvesting: For cut flowers, choose stems with flowers that have just opened. Strip the foliage that will fall below the water level, and place in water immediately. NOTE: ALL PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS WILL BE MAILED WITH YOUR ORDER Max shipping fee is $4.50.
