Product Description
Zinnia elegans 'Sprite Mix' is a delicate and small-flowered yet it's a robust, floriferous hybrid zinnia, which is the easiest to grow in our climate. A bunch of
these look brilliant in one
of our button jugs.
There is hardly a vegetable garden in France, where you will not see these grown for cutting. They thrive in hot, dry, Mediterranean summers and need good drainage and sunny open positions, but survive our colder, wetter summers fine. Grow as many as you have room for!
