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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e100 Button Box Mix Zinnia Seeds (Dwarf).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67795532022070,"sku":"FOLIA2-348","price":27.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.7171673666_fwg4.jpg?v=1792671241","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/100-button-box-mix-zinnia-seeds-dwarf-compact-blooms-for-borders-pots-garden-beds","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
