Planting & Care
Sow Button Box Mix Zinnia seeds directly outdoors after the last frost date, or start them indoors 4-6 weeks before transplanting. Press seeds lightly into the soil surface; they need light to germinate. Keep the soil consistently moist until seedlings emerge, which typically takes 7-14 days at 70-75°F (21-24°C). Once seedlings are established, thin them to the recommended spacing to allow good air circulation.
These zinnias thrive in full sun and well-drained soil. Water regularly, especially during dry spells, but avoid overhead watering to prevent powdery mildew. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming. Fertilize lightly if needed; too much nitrogen can reduce flower production. With minimal care, you'll enjoy a profusion of colorful blooms all season long.
