It's an excellent cut flower that blooms from August until frost. Torch is not the old-fashioned Tithonia that you may have seen. It is the result of scientific plant breeding—bred to be early enough for the North; grows about 4'/2 feet high. All America Selections testify it blooms abundantly everywhere in the U. S.
