Zinnia, Dearest Ellie Mix, LIMIT 1

We are sharing these beauties as part of a fundraiser to help equip us to continue to grow, breed and cutivate these amazing flowers to share with you all! We also will be giving 10% to help an orphanage that we support in Uganda Africa. For these & other reasons we have priced these seeds this way.

We have kept these isolated and culled out any unwanted varieties but since this mix is fairly new, there still will VERY likely be plants that will not fit the mix or possibly ones that are even better than these! If isolated & unwanted ones are culled out, you too can save these seeds to grow out year after year!

Named after our daughter who is the bright & enthusiastic one, this stunning mix matches her personality & is a blend of bright raspberry, soft blush, rose and apricot and creamy yellow. We have culled out all the plants with single blooms & most of the plants with semi double blooms as well so that this mix should be mostly double blooms. Definitely a Must Grow!

Zinnias are most definitely a flower workhorse and if you do not as yet grow these you will definitely want to! If you do grow zinnias already then I need not tell you anymore how wonderful they are!

You can direct sow these into the ground if you'd prefer but I find the best way is to start these indoors about 2in under grow lights, 4 weeks before your last frost. Be sure to acclimate them slowly to the outdoors at least 1 week before planting outside. This way you get ahaed on the season and better germination results!
