Product Description
For summertime borders and beds that pop with big, beautiful flowers in a mix of colors, consider choosing Zahara Improved Zinnia Mixture. This blend of bold blooms is a favorite of beneficial pollinators. The improved mix was developed especially for those gardeners that like the look of extra-large flowers--these are 20% larger than similar zinnia varieties--and want to bring lots of butterflies to their landscapes. Zahara Zinnias do exceptionally well in full sun sites, such as borders, cutting gardens, mixed containers and even mass plantings. Flowers all summer long. Resistant to mildew and leaf spot. Compact plants are tolerant to heat, drought and high humidity. A 2010 All America Selections winner.
