    Not a zinnia, rather a species of *Tithonia*.

    Definitely a Tithonia. I have them in this colour in my garden planters, grown from a packet of ‘Mexican Torch’ variety Tithonia seeds.

    I’ve always called these Mexican sunflower. Butterflies love the nectar but I believe they are considered invasive in some zones.
