Among the easiest flowers to grow, these giant zinnias attract butterflies, enhancing the biodiversity of your garden. They excel in beds, borders, containers, and as cut flowers, continuously producing more blooms the more they are cut. To ensure the health and vigor of these plants, it's essential to water them in a way that keeps the leaves dry, either with a soaker hose or by watering early in the day. Adequate spacing is also crucial to prevent overcrowding and promote air circulation.
For vase arrangements, it's best to remove all the foliage from the stems, allowing the focus to remain on the stunning blooms, which have a remarkable vase life thanks to their sturdy stems. Giant Zinnias are an ideal match for other summer flowers, adding structure and color to any arrangement. Whether starting these seeds indoors to get ahead of the growing season or planting directly in the garden, growing Giant Zinnias is a rewarding and straightforward endeavor.
