They are super easy to grow from seeds, and they make a brilliant cut flower with their blooms reaching approximately 4 - 5 inches across. They are so bold and pretty and very sturdy stems. Pollinators are very attracted to these zinnias. I noticed more Monarch’s this year fluttering around the Zinnias than ever before.

SOWING:
Transplant - Sow into 72-cell flats or preferred seedling container 4 weeks before last frost. Cover seeds. A heat mat will help maintain an accurate temperature. Lower temperatures will result in slower germination: 5-7 days at 70-75°F (21-24°C). Harden-off and transplant out after last frost. Do not allow plants to become root bound.

Very easy to direct seed - After last frost, sow 1/4" deep. Succession-sow/plant every two weeks for prolonged yields of high-quality stems. Pinching of initial bud or bloom and subsequent deadheading is recommended to encourage strong branching and bloom production.

USES: Taller varieties make excellent cut flowers. Beds, borders, and mass plantings.
