Love this plant - they are beautiful. I'm going to try and harvest seeds from my plants this year also.
And the foliage is a SUPER fertilizer.
❤
The flowers are beautiful and the bees loves them ! I’m in Southern California, we just went through a heatwave 108 and the flowers thrived!
@@joanne1713 I'm so happy you are enjoying them also!! I'll always grow them!
Monarches love this and we need to feed them!
❤
Lots of good info. Thanks! You can also purchase seeds for the varieties of Mexican Sunflowers that produce bright red, orange or yellow blossoms.
Thanks for watching! I think I have a yellow variety from what was supposed to be a different sunflower. It's a happy mistake! I'll be looking for more colors!!!
I just stopped at some ladies house today randomly just to ask what is the beautiful flower. The Tithonia!! Can’t wait to grow them next year.
@@hilltopbrenda you will absolutely love it! We have so many butterflies and hummingbirds onit! Pure magic!
They’re on my list for next year!Thank you for all the hard work you put into all of your videos.
Thank you for watching Suzy it means a lot. I hope you enjoy all of the pollinators it brings!
Those flowers are beautiful. Will be purchasing the seeds next year too. Love watching the humming birds. They are all over my Salvia and Guara.😊
love this
Beautiful flowers! I liked your video, thanks a lot dear!
Thank YOU 😊
I think mine last year was hidden too long by competitors. It grew 6+’ and no flowers and thought it was a broadleaf weed and almost pulled it. Just before frost it popped a flower at the top 😂.
We feed the hummers sugar water as there are few blooms when they arrive. I will say it’s work to keep the feeders clean and that there is a timing of when to start and stop. Many feed too late in the season and they stay too long. And on the other side in the south I think they keep them there too long by feeding and they have flowers blooming.
What I have observed is the hummers visit less frequently as flowers bloom.
Saving seed is so fun! I have to have containers at the ready though. What happens is I pluck them off and lay them in a dish thinking I will know or remember what they are. This winter sow I threw in some seed that looked like dust laying in one of those dishes, but I knew they were special if they were indeed seed. They were Spilanthes/eyeball plant/toothache plant. They all came up! It is an interesting looking bloom and I’m sure the deer and rabbits wouldn’t eat them unless they like a numb mouth 😅.
I do the same lol
