Part of the vibrant Zinderella series, Zinderella Fizz Zinnia is a half-hardy annual that produces an abundance of blooms from midsummer until the first frost. Its globe-shaped, double blooms measure two to four inches across and sit atop sturdy 25- to 30-inch stems, making it ideal for cutting. Like a strawberry Italian soda, the frilly, scabiosa-style flowers display a striking bi-color mix accented by a rich, dark center for a uniquely eye-catching look.

Though Zinderella zinnias have been bred for more consistent scabiosa-style blooms, most single to semi-double variation is normal. You’ll see the most fully double flowers early in the season under cooler conditions; as temperatures rise, blooms may shift back toward single.
