Product Overview

Tithonia rotundifolia, commonly known as Mexican Sunflower, is a vibrant annual flowering plant recognized for its brilliant orange to orange-red blooms, broad green foliage, and tall, branching growth habit. Belonging to the Asteraceae family, this ornamental species is native to Mexico and Central America and is appreciated for its colorful seasonal displays and attractive garden appearance.

Mexican Sunflower Seeds offer gardeners an opportunity to grow a distinctive flowering plant suitable for pollinator-friendly gardens, ornamental flower borders, and naturalistic landscape arrangements.

    How to plant your seeds

    Follow these simple steps to give your seeds the best start.

    1. Prepare your soil & tray

      Fill trays or small pots with seed-starting mix. Press gently to settle—no need to pack tight.

    2. Sow seeds at the right depth

      Plant roughly 2–3× the seed’s width deep. Tiny seeds can be pressed lightly into the surface.

    3. Water & keep warm

      Mist or bottom-water. Cover until sprouting if the packet suggests it. Keep in a bright, warm spot.
