Zinnia Cupcake Rose

Cupcake Zinnias make beautiful cut flowers with their fluffy Rose colored blooms on upright stems. The flowers average 2 inches across and can easily be worked into any arrangement. Zinnias are great for beginners and easy to grow from seed.

Sow seeds indoors 4 - 6 weeks before the last frost. Plant seeds ¼ of an inch deep. Fully harden off seedlings before planting out after the last frost. Pinching seedlings when they are about 12’ tall will help encourage side branching which can lead to more blooms.

Direct Sow: in spring after all danger of frost into prepared beds in ¼ in. deep furrows, 4 to 6 seeds per foot. Cover and keep soil surface moist. Thin seedlings to 9 to 24 in. apart depending on the type of zinnia grown. Zinnia plants started from seed in midsummer put on an impressive fall display.

However, because successful growth depends on various factors beyond our control—such as planting conditions, weather, and care—we cannot offer refunds for seeds, corms, or bulbs that do not germinate or sprout.

Thank you for your understanding and support. If you have any questions about planting or care, we’re happy to help!
