Species and varieties: Zinnia elegans is the most common species, with varieties such as 'Lilliput', 'Thumbelina', and 'Profusion' being popular for their compact size and vibrant colors.
Hybrid or heirloom: Zinnia seeds can be both hybrid and heirloom. Hybrid varieties like 'Profusion' are known for their disease resistance and uniform growth, while heirloom varieties like 'Lilliput' are cherished for their traditional characteristics and ability to produce seeds true to type.
Pruning and training: Zinnias benefit from deadheading, which encourages more blooms. Pinching back the stems when the plants are young can promote bushier growth. No significant training is required.
Fertilization needs: Zinnias are not heavy feeders. A balanced, all-purpose fertilizer applied at planting time and once during the growing season is usually sufficient. Over-fertilization can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of flowers.
Hardiness zones: Zinnias thrive in USDA hardiness zones 3-10. They are annuals and will not survive frost, but they can be grown as perennials in tropical climates.
Climate requirements: Zinnias prefer warm weather and full sun. They require well-drained soil and moderate watering. Ideal temperatures for growth range from 70°F to 85°F (21°C to 29°C).
