Small Zinnia Flower Seeds are a type of blooming plant that can be used as indoor plants. These seeds are known for their easy cultivation and ability to thrive in subtropical climates. With 100 seeds in each package, these small zinnia flowers are a great addition to any home garden
Species and varieties: Zinnia elegans, Zinnia angustifolia, and various hybrids. Zinnias come in a range of colors including red, pink, orange, yellow, white, and purple. Popular varieties include 'Thumbelina', 'Lilliput', and 'Profusion'.
Hybrid or heirloom: Zinnias can be both hybrid and heirloom. Heirloom varieties are open-pollinated and can be saved for future planting, while hybrid varieties are bred for specific traits such as disease resistance and unique colors.
Pruning and training: Deadheading spent flowers encourages continuous blooming. Pinching back young plants can promote bushier growth. Zinnias do not require extensive pruning or training.
Fertilization needs: Zinnias benefit from a balanced, all-purpose fertilizer applied at planting time. Additional feeding every 4-6 weeks during the growing season can enhance growth and flowering. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of flowers.
Hardiness zones: Zinnias are suitable for USDA hardiness zones 2-11. They are annuals and will not survive frost.
Climate requirements: Zinnias thrive in warm climates with full sun exposure. They prefer temperatures between 70-85°F (21-29°C) and require well-draining soil. They are drought-tolerant once established but perform best with regular watering.
