Discover the vibrant beauty of Zinnia 'Pumila Mix', also known as Cut and Come Again Zinnia, and add a dash of color to your garden. With semi-double to double flowers of 1-1.5 inch width, this variety offers an enchanting blend of pink, purple, orange, red, white, and yellow hues. Native to Mexico, these fast-growing, long-blooming plants thrive in full sun exposure and bring seasonal warmth well into fall. Not only do these zinnias serve as striking cut flowers for arrangements or bouquets, they are also exceptional pollinator attractors, catching the special attention of butterflies. Regular pruning helps foster flower growth while deterring disease, but over-pruning should be avoided to maintain plant health. Ideally suited for small gardens or containers, Pumila Mix Zinnias adorn tighter spaces with delicate charm. These easy-to-grow annuals require minimal care, attracting novice and experienced gardeners alike. Carrying a historical legacy dating back to its discovery in southern Mexico in 1789, this variety honors German botanist Johann Gottfried Zinn. In Victorian language, zinnias symbolize thoughts of absent friends, adding deeper resonances to the plant's aesthetic appeal.
