Zinnia Polar Bear Seeds
$3.90
Unit price perZinnia elegans
Polar Bear is a classic heirloom Zinnia producing large, fully double blooms in crisp creamy-white, often with a small golden-yellow centre. The densely layered flowers provide beautiful contrast amongst brighter summer colours and are particularly striking when planted en masse.
Growing on tall, sturdy stems, Polar Bear is an excellent variety for cutting gardens, cottage plantings and mixed borders. The elegant white blooms have a good vase life and combine beautifully with almost any colour in floral arrangements. Regular picking encourages further branching and a continuous supply of flowers throughout the warmer months.
The flowers are highly attractive to bees, butterflies and other beneficial insects. Heat tolerant, fast growing and easy to grow, Zinnias thrive in 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.
