Notes
'Zinderella Peach' zinnia (Zinnia elegans 'Zinderella Peach') is an annual for borders, cut flowers, and pollinator gardens. It cannot take cold, and a freeze will end its season. This plant likes full sun and dry to moist soil of most types. Deer usually look elsewhere for a meal. It grows fast and stands erect, with rose, cream, and salmon blooms. Butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees visit the flowers.
Pairs well with Spider flower, Snapdragon, and First Knight fountain grass.
