- Species and varieties: California Giant Zinnia (Zinnia elegans) is a popular variety known for its large, vibrant blooms. It belongs to the species Zinnia elegans, which includes a wide range of colors such as red, pink, yellow, orange, and white.
- Hybrid or heirloom: California Giant Zinnia is typically an heirloom variety, meaning it has been passed down through generations without significant genetic modification. Heirloom seeds are valued for their historical significance and genetic diversity.
- Pruning and training: Regular deadheading (removal of spent flowers) encourages continuous blooming and prevents the plant from going to seed too early. Pinching back the stems when the plants are young can promote bushier growth.
- Fertilization needs: Zinnias benefit from a balanced, all-purpose fertilizer applied at planting time. Additional feeding with a water-soluble fertilizer every 4-6 weeks can support vigorous growth and abundant flowering. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of blooms.
- Hardiness zones: California Giant Zinnias are suitable for USDA hardiness zones 3-10. They thrive in warm climates and can be grown as annuals in most regions.
- Climate requirements: These zinnias prefer full sun and well-drained soil. They are heat-tolerant and can withstand hot summer temperatures. However, they do not tolerate frost and should be planted after the last frost date in your area.
