Well, the individual flowers can last a week or more, but as old ones fade, new ones open so you can have a continuous display of blooms for a few months and even longer. It just depends how big your bloom head is. I've had flowers blooming on two bloom heads of Tahitian Sunset since the beginning of July, about three and a half months, and I hope it continues to bloom for a month or so more yet. You can see the old and new flowers in this picture as well as some unopened buds.
