Torch
Tithonia Seeds
Torch tithonia can be grown as a 4-6 ft. tall heat and drought tolerant screen that does not require staking. The spectacular 3-4 in. wide orange-red flowers are great for cutting and are among the favorite stops of butterflies - particularly the Monarch. The easy to grow plants begin to bloom in July or August and continue until frost. Packet is 1 gram, about 75 seeds.
Growing Torch Tithonia Seeds
Direct sow into prepared seed beds (barely cover) after all danger of frost, in groups of 3-4 seeds spaced 24 in. apart. Thin to the strongest plant. Can be started indoors in 2 in. containers.
