Growing Information
Planting
- Sow seeds outdoors after the danger of frost has passed, planting them in well-drained soil and choosing a spot with plenty of sunlight.
- Seeds can also be started indoors 5–7 weeks before transplanting to encourage earlier blooms.
- Cover seeds lightly with soil and keep the surface evenly moist until germination.
- Space plants to allow adequate airflow and support mature heights of 6 to 24 inches with a similarly compact spread.
- Choose containers or garden beds that offer consistent warmth, as zinnias grow best in stable summer temperatures.
Maintenance
- Thumbelina Mixture Zinnias thrive in warm conditions and show notable tolerance to heat and light drought.
- Plants typically range from 6 to 24 inches tall depending on growing conditions, staying compact enough for containers or edging.
- Water at the base of the plant to avoid wet foliage, which helps reduce the likelihood of fungal issues.
- A light layer of mulch keeps soil moisture consistent and discourages weed growth.
- Removing spent flowers regularly promotes steady blooming from mid-summer to frost.
Harvest & Storage
- These zinnias mature in approximately 60–70 days, providing cheerful blooms throughout the warm season.
- Flowers may be cut for indoor arrangements by snipping stems early in the morning and placing them immediately in fresh water.
- Deadheading spent blooms encourages continued flowering and helps maintain a neat appearance.
