Like the last golden glow of a late August evening, Summer’s End zinnias capture the colours of the season’s lingering sunsets. Shades of rosy pink, coral, and soft peachy orange blend together like a watercolour sky, each bloom carrying a warmth that feels both vibrant and fleeting. With their cheerful faces and long-lasting stems, these zinnias bring the romance of late summer into the garden and vase—an everlasting reminder of the beauty found in those tender, in-between days when summer slowly leans into autumn.

Start seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before your last frost date. Place in a warm area to germinate. Plant outdoors once chances of frost have passed as zinnias don't like cold temperatures. Seeds can also be direct sowed in the garden. Pinch plants once they've reached 12 inches to encourage branching for more blooms.

Harvesting

Harvest zinnias when flowers are mature. Use the 'wiggle test' by grabbing a stem a few inches below the flowers and wiggle the stem. If the stem bends and flops it is not ready to be cut. The stem should be firm and stay upright.

Shipping
