Everwilde Farms - 200 Dahlia Flowered Mixed Zinnia Garden Flower Seeds - Gold Vault Jumbo Bulk Seed Packet

These bright flowers come in a splendid array of colors and are shaped like dahlias. This easy-to-grow annual blooms all summer long, and catches the attention of wandering butterflies. The first botanical records of this plant come from the notes of spanish botanists mocino and sesse, who discovered the species growing in the wilds of southern mexico in 1789. The common name "Zinnia" honors german botanist and professor johann gottfried zinn, who was among the first to grow this species after it was discovered. Zinnias signify thoughts of an absent friend in the victorian language of flowers.
