INSTRUCTIONS

After all danger of frost, sow in open ground well exposed. Or, for earlier bloom, start indoors in flats about 4 weeks before the last frost. Cover with 1/4 inch of soil. When the plants are 3 inches high, thin or transplant.

Planting Depth:6 mm (1/4")

It is better to water at the base of zinnia plants to avoid getting the foliage wet thus helping to prevent disease.

The first flower shoot can be pinched out to encourage the zinnia plant to bush out and produce and better display.
