Tithonia Sunshine Bouquet

By Published On: January 15th, 20200.4 min readCategories: Photos

My Mexican Sunflower (Tithonia diversifolia) had grown tall and leggy in the shade of the trees in the upper yard over the past few months. It was basically like looking at a forest of sticks with flowers 15 feet in the air, so I whacked the plants down to a couple feet tall. Now it’s like looking at a hedge row of sticks, but it’ll be green and leafy again by spring. In the meantime, my wife has some nice bouquets of bright yellow flowers around the house.

I’m just a guy with nearly an acre of dirt, a nice little mid-century ranch house and a near-perfect climate. But in my mind I’m a landscaper survivalist craftsman chef naturalist with a barbeque the size of a VW and my own cable TV show. I like to write about the stuff I build, grow and see here at Sage's Acre.
