Zinnia Haageana Care

Zinnias are very drought tolerant and don't usually need any supplemental watering. If your soil is poor, you can add some compost to give the plants a boost, but they will grow in even bad soil.

You can deadhead zinnias for a longer blooming period, but it's not absolutely necessary. They may pause flowering for a while, but they'll start up again.

Zinnias are easy-going plants, needing only occasional feeding with a well-balanced fertilizer.

Full sun (6 or more hours of direct sunlight a day)

Well-draining soil.

Keep at 70-80°F. Starting Outdoors: Recommended. Direct sow after last spring frost.

If you are looking for brilliantly colored flowers that spill over the edge of containers, consider growing Mexican zinnia (Zinnia haageana).
