Product Description

1oz Zinnia Thumbelina Mix Flower Seeds Zinnia Elegans (Approx 5200 Seeds) Zinnia ‘Thumbelina’ was an All America Selections winner in 1963. Plants grow to just 12 inches tall, and the semi-double to double flower colors include pink, purple, red, orange, white and yellow. This species is native to Mexico, and plants are fast-growing and long-blooming. Recommended for beds and borders, containers and pollinator plantings. Flowers are especially attractive to butterflies. HOW TO GROW ZINNIA Direct sow in spring; this seed germinates best in warm soil. Plant just below the surface and keep the soil lightly moist until germination, which usually occurs within 7-10 days. Seedlings do not transplant well. Water seedlings regularly until they become established, but do not over water. Though they flourish with occasional watering in dry weather, mature plants tolerate some drought. This plant grows best in rich soil, and may need light fertilization for best blooming. Pinch off the growing stems to encourage bushiness, and deadhead to prolong blooming. This plant attracts butterflies and bees. Sowing: Direct sow in spring; this seed germinates best in warm soil.
