Zinnia Park's Cutting Blend Scarlet

These fire-engine red blooms are are attention-getting from across the garden, radiating hot color all summer long! Combined with white, blue, and yellow tones, they are the star of any indoor arrangement, and look so good in the garden you just may have to grow a few extra plants just to beautify the border!

Park's Cutting Blend is the best series for cutflowers because it reblooms like crazy and lasts a long, long time indoors or out. All Zinnias are "cut-and-come-again" flowers, meaning that the faster you cut the old blooms, the quicker new ones will spring up to take their place. But our Cutting Blend takes this one step further with floriferous, very long-blooming 2- to 3-foot plants that give you an extra week or so on either end of the season, and more flowers per plant than you might have believed possible!

If you like these bold scarlet blooms, you must all the other Cutting Blend colors: Rose, Paper White, and honey Golden, as well as two exciting mixes: Pastel Shades and the complete mix of colors. All have the same tremendous flower power and great holding ability!

Zinnia is one of the easiest annuals to begin from seed, and is the very first flowering plant many young and new gardeners grow. What a delight! Just direct-sow the seeds into the warm soil in spring, thin the seedlings to about a foot apart, and sharpen your shears! You'll be cutting gorgeous armloads of blooms for months to come! Pkt is 50 seeds.
