Awesome Annuals

It's fun and challenging to grow new or exotic plants, but it's also nice to have some solid favorites to fall back on, too.

 

Mexican Sunflower

Include the late-blooming Mexican sunflower to shift the garden from summer through autumn in grand style. The bold plants, available in many nurseries and home and garden centers, grow almost 6 feet tall. Fiery orange, 2-inch blossoms seem to illuminate everything around them.
