A delightful mix of colorful flowers on strong, sturdy stems is sure to impress in the flower garden, vegetable garden, or even containers. Large, 4-5 in., semi-double flowers open from summer to frost—and attract bees and butterflies. Makes an attractive cut-flower, too. California Giant Zinnia Mix includes a mix of pink, purple, red, orange, white and yellow hues. What makes this mix a standout is that our grower grows each color individually and then creates a formula mix to give the best blend of colors. Like other zinnias, California Giants Zinnias are easy to grow and very low maintenance.
