Description
Strawberry Bon Bon Zinnias produce adorable 1–2 inch mini flowers on long, standard-height stems. Their single rows of petals range from pastel pink and deeper pink to lilac, surrounding a raised center that resembles a tiny strawberry.
These are especially useful as a specialty cut flower. Harvest them as soon as the stems are sturdy because the blooms move to seed quickly and develop a cone shape as they mature.
Packet contains: Approximately 25 seeds (180 mg)

Growing Info
Growing Info
•
Sun: Full sun; plants can appreciate a little protection during intense heat
•
Sowing: May be sown during somewhat cooler conditions than many zinnias, after frost danger has passed
•
Spacing: Approximately 5–6 inches apart so plants lightly shade one another
•
Care: Provide consistent water and nutrition, and harvest frequently
Important breeding note: Strawberry Bon Bon has a very dominant miniature form. We do not recommend planting it near a breeding patch because crosses may strongly resemble this variety.
Flower color and form may vary naturally from plant to plant.
Production note: Zinnias are cut-and-come-again flowers. Pinching when young and harvesting regularly can encourage branching and continued stem production.
