Product Review

Grow Cactus Zinnias from fresh Zinnia elegans flower seeds. Cactus Mixture will produce Aster like blooms in shades of orange, yellow, red, pink and purple. Each plant will reach a mature height of roughly 30 inches tall with blooms spanning 5 inches wide. Grown as an annual flowering plant, the Zinnia will establish quickly from seeds, bloom profusely during the summer months and later die with the first killing frost. Cactus Mixture is greatly used as a cut flower and can be used in floral arrangements & bouquets as well. You might be shocked to learn that Zinnias weren't always so popularly chosen to please the eye. In fact, when the Spanish first discovered the Zinnia, they named it "mal de ojos," which simply translates to "Sickness of the eye". However, over many years of breeding, the Zinnia flower has become eye candy for gardeners all over the world. It is sought after for it's gorgeous double blooms, attractive foliage, and brightly colored petals.
