Giant Carmine Rose Zinnia Flower Seeds produce plants that bear large, double-petaled flowers in shades of deep pink or carmine red. The seeds themselves are medium-sized and typically sold in packets. To grow giant carmine rose zinnias from seeds, plant them in well-draining soil in the spring, after the last frost.
Highlights:
- Quantity: 50 pieces
- Soil requirements: Giant Carmine Rose Zinnias prefer well-drained, fertile soil with a pH level between 5.5 and 7.5. The soil should be rich in organic matter to support healthy growth.
- Sunlight needs: These zinnias thrive in full sun, requiring at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight daily.
- Watering requirements: Water the zinnias regularly, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water deeply once or twice a week, depending on weather conditions, to encourage deep root growth.
- Planting season: The best time to plant Giant Carmine Rose Zinnia seeds is in the spring, after the last frost has passed. They can also be planted in early summer.
- Depth and spacing: Plant the seeds at a depth of 1/4 inch (0.6 cm) and space them about 12 to 18 inches (30 to 45 cm) apart to allow for proper air circulation and growth.
- Germination time: The seeds typically germinate within 7 to 14 days under optimal conditions.
- Maturity time: Giant Carmine Rose Zinnias usually reach maturity and start blooming within 60 to 70 days after planting.
- Harvesting time: The best time to harvest zinnias is in the early morning when the flowers are fresh and hydrated.
- Harvesting tips: Use sharp scissors or pruning shears to cut the flowers. Make the cut just above a set of leaves or a branching stem to encourage more blooms. Store the cut flowers in a vase with clean water, and change the water every couple of days to prolong their freshness.
