Description

Vibrant Colors and Pollinator-Friendly Blooms

The Zinnia Lilliput Mix is known for its stunning array of colors and unique pom-pom-shaped flowers that make an eye-catching display in any garden setting. These button-like blooms add texture and dimension to borders and flower beds, making them an excellent choice for gardeners looking to add visual interest. 

The diverse color palette, including shades of red, orange, pink, purple, white, and yellow, provides a dynamic burst of color throughout the blooming season.

In addition to their aesthetic appeal, these blooms are beautiful to pollinators, especially butterflies, making them a valuable addition to any pollinator-friendly garden. Pollinators' constant activity ensures that your garden stays lively and full of life all season long.

Ideal for Beds, Borders, and Containers

The semi-dwarf nature of the Zinnia Lilliput Mix makes it particularly well-suited for various planting scenarios. Whether you're looking to fill out flower beds, create decorative borders, or add a pop of color to containers and window boxes, these versatile plants fit the bill. Their compact growth habit ensures they won't overwhelm smaller spaces, while their upright, tidy foliage creates a neat, well-structured appearance.

Thanks to their sturdy stems and long-lasting blooms, zinnias are also a top choice for cutting gardens. Bring the beauty of your outdoor space indoors by creating colorful bouquets that brighten up any room.

Planting and Growing Instructions

Zinnia Lilliput Mix is an annual variety that thrives in sunny locations with rich, well-drained soil. Seeds can be started indoors 5-7 weeks before the final frost date to get a head start on the blooming season. Once the weather has warmed, transplant the seedlings into your garden, ensuring they are planted in a spot with full sun.

For direct sowing, plant seeds in the prepared soil at a depth of 1/4 inch, spacing them 6-12 inches apart. As the seedlings grow to about 2 inches, thin them out to allow for proper spacing of 8-12 inches between plants. This ensures that each plant has enough room to develop fully, producing more blooms and denser foliage.

Keep the soil consistently moist, but avoid getting the foliage wet to reduce disease risk. Feeding the plants with a flower fertilizer when buds appear will encourage even more blooms throughout the season. To promote bushier plants, pinch back young plants early in their growth and remove spent flowers regularly to promote continuous blooming.
