Tithonia Red Torch

Tithonias are still a goin’ 👍 The first frost of the year for my area is forecast for tomorrow night though so I’ve been trying to enjoy every last bit of my non-hardy plants while they last 🍃❄️🍂...😭 #flower #redflower #orangeflower #redorangeflower #tithonia #mexicansunflower #hummingbirdmagnet #beemagnet #longblooming #pollinatorplant #octoberblooms

Thank you, Maggie!! ❤️ @dirtgirlworld

@akshat 🙏 Thank you!

That’s a really good picture

Wow! 🧡

Thank you! 🙏☺️ @docthrill

@anges 🧡 Hehe yeah I loves me some Tithonia & this was one of my favorite shots that I’ve taken of them

🐝 Honeybees have been visiting my Tithonias a lot lately! This wonderful, long-blooming flower has been a true workhorse in my garden!! #heirloom #grownfromseed #flower #redflower #orangeflower #redorangeflower #mexicansunflower #tithonia #bee #savethepollinators #pollinatorplant #autumnblooms #wildlifewednesday

*I just created a new hashtag called #savethepollinators for photos that feature plants known for being highly beneficial to pollinators. I love our pollinators & we are at a crucial turning point on this planet where it is more important now than ever to support them. Our very lives depend on them, after all!! My hope is that others on here might use this hashtag as well to help spread this vital information* I will be getting down from my soapbox now 😆!

Thank you ladies! 😊 @cyndi & @dirtgirlworld

One of my favorite flowers: Mexican Sunflower a.k.a. Tithonia!! ❤️🌻🧡#heirloom #grownfromseed #flower #redflower #orangeflower #redorangeflower #tithonia #mexicansunflower #longbloom #pollinatorplant #beemagnet #hummingbirdmagnet #birdseed #dew #dewdrops

@dirtgirlworld 🙏☺️ I started growing these this year & I will grow them every year from now on because I love them so much! The color of the blooms & the pollinators/wildlife it attracts makes me 😊😊😊!!!

@dirtgirlworld Very cool 😎 so you know what I mean haha!!

Photo is very clear. Amazing 👌

Wow! that red colour is amazing ♥️🌻

What a stunning color!

@kypie8 I just posted my 12’ sunflower

Beautiful 😍 #perfection #septemberblooms #frameworthy 😍

@dirtgirlworld That is very sweet & I love that you are passing down the tradition through your family. 🤗 My 13 year old son thinks it’s cool that I garden but he’s only taken a mild interest in it. He did say this year that he wants to plant Radishes, Carrots & Fennel (his favorites) in his “own” bed next year 😊 haha

@mehul22 @anettea @alisons50 @sherrisgarden thank you for the kind words!!

Very welcome
