PEPPERMINT STICK

Zinnia elegans A vibrant standout and new favorite in our zinnia collection, Peppermint Stick delivers a playful burst of color with every bloom. This vintage cultivar has been cherished for decades and offers an eye-catching mix of red stripes, speckles, and variegated patterns on petals of cream, white, yellow, and orange. Bloom sizes range from petite one-inch singles to lush double blossoms over two and a half inches across. It's not only fabulous and full of personality, but also a magnet for bees and other pollinators. No two flowers are exactly alike, creating a dynamic display in the garden and in bouquets.  Zinnias come in a diverse range of shapes, sizes, and colors—something for everybody. They are heat-loving plants, best sown at the same time that peppers are transplanted outside. Zinnias bloom during that part of summer when many other flowers have finished, from late July until the rainy season sets in, or until your first frost. Germination code: (1) or (4)
