Notes
'Double Zahara Bright Orange' zinnia (Zinnia marylandica 'Double Zahara Bright Orange') is an annual for borders, containers, cut flowers, and pollinator gardens. It is tender to cold, and the first hard frost will kill it. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. The compact, dwarf plants stay erect and reach about 20 inches tall. Orange and golden blooms attract butterflies and bees. The plants resist disease and tolerate drought.
Pairs well with Tidal Wave Silver petunia, Citronella grass, and American Dawn dahlia.
