Unit price perZinnia elegans
Lilliput Mix is a charming Zinnia producing masses of compact, fully double, dome-shaped flowers in a brilliant range of colours. The neat, densely petalled blooms resemble colourful pom-poms and are produced generously on branching plants reaching approximately 50 cm tall.
The smaller flower size and strong stems make Lilliput particularly useful for cutting, with the blooms adding wonderful colour and texture to posies and floral arrangements. Its compact growth also makes it ideal for borders, cottage gardens, containers and mass plantings.
The abundant flowers are highly attractive to bees, butterflies and other pollinating insects. Fast growing and easy to grow, Zinnias thrive in warm weather and full sun with fertile, well-drained soil. Regular picking or deadheading encourages further branching and a continuous supply of flowers throughout summer and into autumn.
