Planting & Care
Sow Queen Lime Mix Zinnia seeds outdoors after the danger of frost has passed, or start indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost date. Press seeds lightly into the soil surface; do not cover as light aids germination. Keep soil consistently moist until seedlings emerge, which typically takes 7-14 days at 70-75°F (21-24°C). Thin seedlings to stand 9-12 inches apart to allow good air circulation.
Once established, zinnias are relatively low-maintenance. Water at the base of plants to avoid wetting foliage, which can promote disease. Deadhead spent flowers regularly to encourage continued blooming. Fertilize lightly if soil is poor. Zinnias are generally pest-resistant but monitor for common issues like powdery mildew in humid conditions.
