Yes that’s what I do; lots of zinnias! They do draw the large butterflies; swallowtails and fritillaries, etc.
Love the color! I had to look up Tithonia. Tithonia, also called Mexican Sunflower, is an annual plant that is native to Mexico and Central America. This drought tolerant plant likes warm weather. Tithonia blooms from summer to fall. The daisy-like flowers in orange and yellow, grow 2 1/2" to 3 inches across.I learned something new today! Thank you!

Posted by KateOahuI saw some pretty flowers on a walk today. I’d never seen a white Hibiscus before. And I do not know what the pink flowers are.
