ZINNIA / JAKOB REGOP x 15+ seeds

Zinnia is a genus of plants of the sunflower tribe within the daisy family. They are native to scrub and dry grassland in an area stretching from the Southwestern United States to South America, with a centre of diversity in Mexico.

Zinnias can be sown indoors from February until April, or sown outdoors directly into the soil in May. If sowing in trays or modules, make sure you use free-draining compost, so seedlings don't suffer from dampness, and transplant seedlings as soon as they have a pair of true leaves.

Zinnias prefer full sun and well-drained soil. Zinnias are highly attractive to pollinators, particularly butterflies. Three types of blooms: single, double, and semi-double. Zinnias have a wide range of heights, growth habits and flower colors.
