Description

Like a beautiful faded carpet, these two zinnias make a calm and sophisticated duo growing in a sunny corner in the garden and cut for inside. One of my favourite ever pairings.

This collection includes 1 seed packet, or 5 or 10 seedlings of each of:
  • Zinnia elegans 'Benary's Giant Lime'
  • Zinnia elegans 'Queeny Lime Red'

Care Tips

Water regularly and feed with tomato feed. Powdery mildew can be a problem during hot, dry spells, the only remedy is to keep the soil moist.
