One of the easiest annuals to grow, zinnias are beloved by gardeners for their low-maintenance nature and their ability to attract butterflies to the garden. Whether planted in beds, borders, or containers, Picks Lilac Zinnias thrive in the sun and heat of summer, requiring only well-drained soil to flourish.
To ensure the health and vitality of your blue zinnia flowers, it's essential to combat mildew, their biggest enemy. Consider watering them with a soaker hose or ground-based spray to minimize wetting the foliage. Alternatively, opt for early morning watering to allow the leaves to dry off before nightfall.
When it comes to arranging your blooms, remember to space the Picks Lilac Zinnia plants generously to prevent overcrowding. And when cutting blooms for the vase, trim off all foliage, as it does not age well.
Whether direct sowing or starting indoors, Picks Lilac Zinnias promise a bounty of beauty and elegance in any garden landscape, making them an essential addition to your summer garden lineup.
