(24-36" tall) Versatile Peruvian Zinnias are at home in cottage
gardens, as a mass planting, and among meadow flowers. An easy-care annual wildflower
that will bloom all summer, it produces an abundance of red, nectar-rich
flowers that attract butterflies and bees. The 1-1/2" diameter blooms
perch on tall stems, making them delightful as cut flowers, too. Peruvian
Zinnia is native to the Southwest US; it prefers full sun and, once
established, tolerates dry soils, though it adapts to most soil types. Direct
sow seeds in the garden after all danger of frost is past, or get a head start
by sowing seeds indoors about a month before your last spring frost date. If
you allow some flowers to mature and form seedpods, the seeds may self-sow and,
in mild climates, create a naturalized planting that will return every year.
