Flaming orange flowers among the large, velvety leaves attract many butterflies and hummingbirds. This bright red annual originally comes from Mexico. Gardeners appreciate this plant for its ability to attract flocks of butterflies. The genus name "Tithonia" comes Greek mythology and refers to Tithonius, the beloved of Aurora, the goddess of the dawn.

 

This was taken at a wonderful, small private refuge of gorgeous flowers, lots of honey bees, butterflies, hummingbirds, finches and an occasional bunny. I was unaware of the wide variety of sunflowers until this visit!
