Zinnia Elegans ‘Rose’ features extra-large, very double flowers, four to five inches across, packed with deep rose-pink petals. Blooming profusely over a lengthy season extending from early summer to frost, this neon-bright Zinnia is well-branched and perfect for the sunny border. Its long, sturdy stems make it a wonderful addition to bouquets. Extremely easy to grow, Zinnias are annuals which love full sun and prefer a humus, evenly moist and well-draining soil. Great choice for the back of sunny beds and borders or large containers.
