Notes
'Queeny Lime with Blush' zinnia (Zinnia elegans 'Queeny Lime with Blush') is an annual for borders, cut flowers, and pollinator gardens. It is not cold-hardy and will not survive freezing temperatures. This plant likes full sun and dry to average, loamy soil. It grows fast to 30 to 40 inches tall, and its lime blooms with a blush tint make a sophisticated color combination. Butterflies, hummingbirds, bees, and birds visit the flowers. Deer tend to browse other plants first.
Pairs well with Procut Red sunflower, Radiance cosmos, and Cerise Queen yarrow.
