Planting & Care

Sow Queen Lime Red Zinnia seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost date, or direct sow outdoors after the danger of frost has passed and soil has warmed to at least 60°F (15°C). Press seeds lightly into the soil and keep moist until germination, which typically occurs in 7-14 days. Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, thin or transplant to the recommended spacing.

Provide full sun and consistent moisture, but avoid overhead watering to reduce disease risk. Deadhead spent blooms regularly to encourage continued flowering. Zinnias are relatively low-maintenance and benefit from a light application of balanced fertilizer if grown in poor soil.
