  • Description

  • Notes

This tough little annual has starry little flowers in yellow, orange, or cream that bloom from June to frost. Foliage is dark glossy green, and the plant gets about 6 inches tall with a spread of 12 to 18 inches. Not a true zinnia, but so named for the similarity of the flowers.
