Zinnia

Zinnia is another old favorite that has undergone some great changes in the past few years. The varieties we are growing are hybrid zinnias that are very disease resistant. Fungus diseases have been a problem in the past, but the hybrid types are nearly immune from the problem. This is a plant that gives a lot of color in sunny, hot areas. Give them adequate water and they will grow and bloom beautifully.
