Zinnia ‘Little Flower Girl’

Zinnia elegans

This adorable early-flowering pastel mix features darling miniature flowers in shades of blush, soft pink, pale peach, and champagne. Tall, strong, slender stems carry single, semi-double, and the occasional double blooms that are perfect for arranging. They are a favorite with pollinators.

Please note that this variety is still a work in progress and is not 100% uniform, so you will undoubtedly find a few off types in the mix. We will continue to refine and improve this selection, but are making it available before it’s “perfect” for you to grow and enjoy.

To help you have more success growing these special varieties, each seed order will include a printed growing guide with step-by-step instructions.

How to Grow:
Sow seeds indoors in trays or pots 4 to 6 weeks before your last frost. Zinnias are very cold sensitive, so wait until all danger of frost has passed before planting outside. Zinnias can also be direct-seeded into the garden once weather is consistently warm.

Harvesting/Vase Life:
Use the “wiggle test”: Grab the stem about 8 in down from the flower and gently shake it. If the stem is droopy or bends, don’t cut yet. If the stem is stiff and remains erect, it is ready to harvest. Do not put in the cooler. Zinnias are notorious for making their water murky. To combat this, add a few drops of bleach to the water. Expect a vase life of 7 days.
