Royal Purple Zinnia Seeds

About- This beautiful, easy-to-grow, dahlia-flowered zinnia, produces full, deep purple blooms that grow 3-5 inches in diameter and are supported by 30-36" long stems.

When and where to plant- Start indoors or direct sow, taking extra care if transplanting seedlings. Add compost in an area that is well draining as zinnias are susceptible to mildew.
