Growing Tips
Mazurkia zinnias grow best in full sun and well-draining, rich soil. Regular deadheading promotes extended blooming, making them excellent for a “cut-and-come-again” garden. They are also highly resistant to drought once established, making them the ideal summer flower for warm climates.
When to Grow
Zinnias are frost-sensitive and should be planted outdoors after the last frost when temperatures are consistently above 60 F. In areas with shorter growing seasons, seeds can be started indoors about 4 weeks before the last expected frost, and transplanted outside when the soil warms up.
How to Sow and Plant
Sow seeds directly outdoors at a depth of 1/4 inch and space them 9-12 inches apart to provide good airflow and reduce the risk of mildew. If starting indoors, use trays with a light, well-draining seed-starting mix and keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Use biodegradable pots or other means to minimize root disturbance when transplanting. Germination typically takes 4-6 days at 75-80 F.
How to Grow
Water deeply but allow the soil to dry between waterings, as zinnias are susceptible to root rot if overwatered. Fertilize lightly with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer. Pinching the young plants when they reach about 6 inches will encourage branching and result in bushier growth, ideal for floral arrangements. Mulch around the base to help retain soil moisture and regulate temperature.
How to Save
- Allow the flowerhead containing the seeds to mature and dry on the plant.
- Clip off the flowerhead and place it in a paper bag or other container.
- Working over the top of another clean, opened container, rub the flowerheads between the palms to break them apart.
- The seeds can be separated from the chaff by first screening and then winnowing.
- Store in a cool, dry, dark place over winter.
