This listing is for a package of 250+ Mexican sunflower seeds. AKA Tithonia rotundifolia. Annual. Full sun.

Very easy, fast growing annual flowers! If you have a hot and dry location and want abundant blooms from mid-summer to frost, this is a great choice! Known to be the BEST variety of Tithonia available for cut flower production.

Due to plants magnificent height they work well for the back of borders or grown in large swaths or as a hedge for an eye catching display. Large, happy orange blooms up to 3 1/2" across.

It is better to wait a little longer than try and jump start them as colder temps will inhibit germination and/or stunt plants growth. Required soil temp around 65°-75°.

Plant height 5'-6' Spacing 12"-24"
