Also known under the common name of Mexican Sunflower, this heat loving annual produces large bushy plants that are covered in bright orange flowers. The heat and drought tolerance of Tithonia means it can be effectively used in semi-arid environments that many other annuals couldn’t tolerate, and adds a vivid look to garden beds.
