Zinnia (Zinnia Marylandica Profusion Yellow) - The ideal choice for landscape programs where mass plantings of large flowered zinnias are desired.  These yellow flowering zinnias grow 12 - 18 inches tall and wide.  Tremendous disease resistance for reliable season long performance in the garden or as a container plant.

Zinnias are one of the easiest annuals to grow, and attract butterflies to the garden. They make an excellent cut flower as the more you cut, the more flowers you get! They thrive in the sun and heat of summer, only asking for well-drained soil. When cutting the blooms for the vase it is best to trim off all the foliage; unlike the blooms, the foliage does not age well.

Common Questions

Q

How do I condition my cut zinnia flowers?

A

Bring a bucket of water with you to the garden when you cut your flowers and put them in the water as soon as you cut them. This will allow them to take up water through the freshly cut stem. Cut on an angle to give more surface area for the water to be taken up. Keep them out of the direct sun.

Q

Do I need to stake my zinnias?

A

Taller varieties may benefit from staking, especially if they are in a windy area.

Q

Why are my zinnias tall and thin with much smaller flowers than expected?

A

If zinnias are planted too closely, they will produce tall plants and much smaller flowers. Always follow the recommended spacing on the planting instructions.

Q

Can I encourage more blooms on my zinnia plants?

A

Yes, first you will need to ensure your plants are in a full sun area to get a good bloom season from your plants. You can pinch the main growth of young plants when they are about 12 inches tall to encourage more branching which will increase your number of blooms. Also, deadhead your spent blooms throughout summer to encourage a longer bloom season.

Q

Will flowers attract any pollinators to my garden?

A

Yes, butterflies and hummingbirds enjoy these flowers.

Q

Will deer eat my flowers?

A

No, deer tend to avoid these plants.

How to Grow

Directly sow your Zinnia once spring has begun and the soil is already warmed. Your Zinnia should flower 5 - 6 weeks after its been sowed. It is also possible to plant your Zinnia while the weather is still chilly, if your area has a late coming warm spring. It will still grow just as well, but won't bloom until the weather is warm enough.

  • Sowing Rate: 2 - 4 seeds per plant
