Zinnia ‘Day Glow Mix’
Zinnia violacea
Description
This is my favorite of the Peace Seedlings zinnia offerings. The color range is tropical, including orange, coral, raspberry, peach, and cherry. All of the flowers are 2-toned and either semi-double or single: yellow with peach tips, orange with peach tips, orange with raspberry tips, orange with yellow tips, deep orange with a red wash, orange with paler orange tips, and raspberry with pale yellow tips. Flowers are a medium size and plants have a compact growth habit.
Details
Height: 25 to 30 in
Site: full sun
Days to maturity: 75 to 90 days
Plant spacing: 9 to 12 in
Seed Sowing & Growing Notes
Start seed indoors in trays 4 to 6 weeks before last frost; transplant out after all danger of frost has passed. Zinnias can also be direct-seeded once the weather has warmed.
