If you want to grow big, beautiful flowers, Rose Zinnia is an easy choice. This annual flower grows quickly from seed and produces big, 4-5 in. flowers atop sturdy, 30-40 in. stems. It's a great choice for borders. Pollinators, especially butterflies, will thank you. They love landing on the flowers and feasting on the nectar. Native to Mexico, zinnias also make long-lasting, showy cut flowers. Plant several Rose Zinnias together or mix with other colors. Zinnias bloom from late summer to frost and adapt to a range of soil types. For best results, plant in full sun.
