Zinnia elegans 'Cresto Mixed'

  • Product number: 561590
  • Origin: Mexico
  • Latin: Common Zinnia

Refreshing, these uniquely shaped zinnia flowers! The resemblance to the scabiosa is striking (if that means anything to you); the name implies the flower has a crest... That's quite a nice characterization: along the edge are the flat ray florets and in the center rise many tubular ray florets, a comical sight! This mixture includes the colors white, yellow, pink, orange, and red. The sturdy flowers have stems 75 cm tall.

Names:
Latin: Zinnia elegans
