ZINNIA (Zinnia elegans)
DESCRIPTION—This is a great cut flower with brilliant colors and shapes that truly represent a Midwest summer. Bring the pollinators into your farm and then harvest the flowers for your loved ones and to sell at market. This is a positive thing for everyone involved.
GROWING INSTRUCTIONS—Direct seeded. After the last frost, sow two seeds 1/4" deep every 9" in rows 12" apart, or scatter the seeds in well prepared soil and rake in gently. Cutting old flowers off plants will increase flower production.
