This annual will grow to about 4' tall and 2' wide. It has oval leaves with flowers could be orange, pink, red, yellow or white and bloom in spring, summer, and fall. Deadhead to encourage more blooming. Zinnias do best in hot dry summer areas. This pretty flower prefers full sun and well draining soil. Zinnia are great for dressing up entryways, walkways and containers.

Planting Instructions: 1. Dig a hole 2 times the width and 1 and 1/2 times the height of the container. 2. Set rootball just above ground level. 3. Mix soil with 25% amendment and %75 soil. 4. Backfill with amended soil. 5. Build basin and water.
