Sow zinnia seeds outdoors after the last frost date, once soil has warmed to at least 60°F (15°C). Plant seeds about 1/4 inch deep and keep the soil consistently moist until germination, which typically occurs in 7-14 days. Thin seedlings to the recommended spacing to allow good air circulation.
Zinnias prefer full sun and well-drained soil. Water regularly at the base of the plant to avoid wetting the foliage, which can help prevent disease.
