GROWING ZINNIAS
HOW TO PLANT, GROW, AND CARE FOR ZINNIA
FLOWERS
Zinnias are one of the easiest
flowers to grow, as they grow quickly and bloom heavily. Zinnia flowers can
create a massive burst of color in your garden, so consider trying them this
year!
PLANTING
WHEN TO PLANT ZINNIAS
It’s recommended that you grow
zinnia from seed right in the garden bed, as they do not like to be
transplanted and do not often thrive. From seed, they will grow very quickly in
the right conditions.
Note: Zinnias can be started from
seed indoors if you prefer—just transplant them while they’re young and do so
carefully.
Zinnias are sensitive to frost, so
do not seed until the last frost has passed. See your local frost dates.
Zinnias will grow in a minimum
daytime temperature of about 60°F (16°C), though a range of 74–84°F (23–28°C)
is preferred.
Sow a round of seeds every week or
so for several weeks to extend the flowering period.
CHOOSING AND PREPARING A PLANTING
SITE
Choosing a location that gets full
sun is essential.
Good air circulation will help to
prevent foliar diseases such as powdery mildew later in the season.
Zinnias are adaptable to most soil
conditions, but the ideal soil will be rich in organic matter and well-drained.
Soil pH should be between 5.5 and
7.5.
If soil is amended with compost, the
flowers will grow more quickly. Learn more about soil amendments and preparing
soil for planting.
HOW TO PLANT ZINNIAS
Space plants 4 to 24 inches apart,
depending on variety. (Many common varieties are planted 6 inches apart within
the row and 2 feet in between rows.) See back of seed packet for
variety-specific advice.
Sow zinnia seeds only about ¼-inch
deep.
You’ll see zinnia seedlings in only
4 to 7 days for most varieties, though it will be anywhere from several weeks
to a couple months before blooms appear (depending on planting site and
climate).
When seedlings reach three inches
tall, thin them so that they’re 6 to 18 inches apart to maximize air
circulation. This reduces the chance of powdery mildew developing.
CARE
HOW TO CARE FOR ZINNIAS
Maintain moderate soil moisture and
fertilize lightly to maximize growth and blooms.
After zinnias flower, cut off the
old flowers (a process called “deadheading”) to encourage more flowers to form.
Zinnias are annuals and will die
with the first hard frost of fall. If you want them to reseed, let the last
flowers of the season mature fully and scatter their seeds.
SEED STORING
- Store
your seeds in a cool, dry and dark location. - Most
seeds have a long shelf life, but heat and moisture will cut that life
short. - Dedicate
a drawer or cabinet to storing your seeds where you can also house your
gardening journal close at hand for dreaming, planning and preparing.
