Zinnia elegans

Scabiosa Flowered Mix is an unusual and eye-catching Zinnia producing distinctive double blooms with raised, pincushion-like centres reminiscent of Scabiosa flowers. The mixture offers a rich range of colours from deep carmine and scarlet through soft pink, apricot and cream, with the intricate flower form adding wonderful texture to summer plantings.

Growing approximately 60–75 cm tall, the branching plants flower prolifically throughout the warmer months. The strong stems and unusual blooms make an excellent cut flower and add beautiful shape and interest to bouquets and floral arrangements. Regular picking encourages further branching and a continuous supply of flowers.

The abundant blooms 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. Good airflow around plants and watering at soil level rather than over the foliage will help keep plants healthy.

Approximately 200 seeds per packet

Planting / Sowing

Sow directly where plants are to grow after the danger of frost has passed, or raise in trays for an earlier start. Cover seed approximately 5 mm deep and keep warm and consistently moist during germination.

Transplant or thin seedlings to approximately 25–30 cm apart in full sun and well-drained soil. Avoid unnecessary root disturbance when transplanting. Regularly pick flowers or deadhead spent blooms to encourage branching and continued flowering.

Due to quarantine restrictions, TAS has an 800g limit per each seed variety and WA has a 10,000 seeds limit per variety.
