Notes
'Peruviana Zinnia' (Zinnia peruviana 'Peruviana Zinnia') is an annual for borders, containers, and meadows. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil of most types. It grows about 24 inches tall and spreads 24 to 36 inches. Butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees visit the blooms from early to late summer.
Pairs well with Rubenza cosmos, Soraya sunflower, and Foxtail barley.
