Zinnia (Double types)
Abundant colorful blooms all summer
Why plant it:
Double zinnias are the go-to zinnias for disease resistance and uniformity.
Extreme heat and drought tolerance translates into excellent landscape
performance.
Where to plant and key care tips:
Double zinnias are landscaping types designed for large plantings, but they also
looks fabulous in containers. Plant in well-draining soil and don’t overwater.
Light: 6+ hours daily
Water: when soil is dry to touch
Height: 8-12”
For Facebook/newsletters:
Double-flowered zinnias are the go-to zinnias for nonstop color all season. These
compact, bushy plants are covered with daisy-like blooms in hot, summery colors
that don’t fade. Easy-to-grow double zinnias are low maintenance and disease
resistant, plus they attract numerous butterflies to the garden.
Heat-loving plants have low water needs and are outstanding in sunny, hot, and
dry conditions. Double zinnias are no exception – expect a “summer survivor”
performance in the landscape as well as in containers. Deadheading is not
necessary, as double zinnias are self-cleaning, which saves lots of time if mass
planted. What’s not to love?
