Zinnia 'Profusion Double Golden'
Laughs at powdery mildew while withstanding heat, humidity, cold, drought, and poor soil.
These bushy plants, 12 to 15 inches high and 15 to 18 inches wide, are simply smothered nonstop all season with cheerful, 2-inch daisy-formed blooms. The petals are rich golden-orange, and they arise in layers surrounding a bold, eye-catching central cone. This landscaping series is designed for large plantings -- unlike the cut-flower or bedding varieties, Profusion is a dense, bushy, many-flowered little plant that covers ground AND fills the garden with color into the bargain!
Profusion is highly tolerant of powdery mildew (don't we wish all Zinnias were!) and other foliage diseases, and laughs at heat, humidity, and drought. We are proud to give Profusion our highest recommendation for garden-worthiness.
Zinnia is one of the easiest annuals to grow, attracting butterflies to the garden. It thrives in the sun and heat of summer, and asks only for well-drained soil of any type. Space the plants generously to prevent overcrowding. Use it to create a colorful low hedge, edging, or bright ribbon in the annual bed! Pkt is 25 seeds.
