- Double flowers add a fuller look to containers and bedding displays.

- A good companion colour for orange, scarlet, pink, purple and yellow zinnias.
- Coated seed is easier to handle for controlled sowing.
Garden Uses
Plant Zinnia Zesty White where you need contrast, brightness or a calmer break between stronger colours. It is particularly useful in mixed containers, sunny borders and mass plantings where white flowers help tie the palette together.
Growing Notes
- Direct sow into warm, prepared soil where possible, as zinnias dislike rough transplanting.
- In frost-prone regions, start seed under cover and transplant gently once conditions are safe.
- Water deeply, then allow the soil surface to dry slightly between waterings.
- Avoid overhead watering where possible and keep plants well spaced to reduce mildew pressure.
- Deadhead or pick flowers often to keep new buds forming through the warm season.
