Question 1

How long do Zinnia flowers bloom?

Accepted Answer

Typically 8–10 weeks from first bloom. Harvest: Cut flowers when blooms are fully open, summer to early autumn. Flowering runs June to September. Watering: moderate; keep soil moist but not waterlogged.

Question 2

How do I germinate Zinnia seeds?

Accepted Answer

Sow seeds indoors 4–6 weeks before last frost or directly outdoors after frost. Sow the seeds directly into warm, damp, and well-drained soil, lightly covering them to aid germination. Keeping the soil in a warm spot encourages the seeds to sprout effectively during the sowing months of February through May. Seedlings usually appear in 7–14 days. Sow from February to May.

Question 3

Do Zinnias attract pollinators?

Accepted Answer

Yes, they are excellent for bees and butterflies. It is filed here as a nectar flower, which is the catalogue's way of saying it is worth growing for bees and other pollinators.

Question 4

Do these seeds make a good gift?

Accepted Answer

Yes — this is a straightforward packet to give, and what makes it work as a gift is mostly timing. Sowing runs February to May, so a packet given inside that window can go straight in, and one given outside it keeps perfectly well until the season comes round. There are approximately 30 seeds in the packet. On effort it looks after itself, which matters if you are giving it to someone new to growing. It suits pots, beds and cut flower displays, so it works for a small space as well as a garden.
