Zinnia Thumbelina. This dainty little heirloom flower grows upright with large flowers on erect stems. They are grown as an annual and no trouble at all to grow. They come in brilliant shades of yellow, purple, orange, pink, red and white, and are especially popular with gardeners because of their hardiness and those beautiful colors. Because of their semi double to double flowers they will make wonderful full arrangements, and excellent for crafting for ease of handling. They prefer a warm climate and will bloom from summer to frost. They require no special attention and you don’t have to wait long to enjoy them because they grow relatively fast. They are happy in rich moist soil, and be mindful not to allow the soil to dry out between watering. It is recommended when watering, not to get water on the leaves by watering at the base of the plant to avoid mildew issues. It is also used as salad garnish, in cold drinks, desserts, and decorating serving trays.

I urge anyone buying seed to do their homework on germination, I have not raised and cannot raise many of these plants as I am sub-tropics here in St Augustine, Florida. All seed are NOT alike!  There are so many different factors in germination and not doing a search is throwing your money away. I want everyone to be successful when growing your flowers from seed it is the most rewarding experience in Gardening and you can do it, if you give the seed what it needs to grow. I always check 3 sites of info to choose how I will go about it. It is not hard to do, if you do it right!
SEED GERMINATION TIP!!!!!!!
ONLY GERMINATE A SMALL PORTION AT A TIME.
DON'T PUT ALL YOUR MONKEYS IN A BARREL.
Good Luck and Happy Planting!!!!
