The best dwarf Zinnia ever grown, the Magellan series introduces bigger, more abundant blooms than ever before! These fully double, petal-packed beauties reach up to 5 inches wide and arise profusely all over neat, well-branched little plants scarcely more than a foot high! If you love the bold colors and indestructible garden presence of Zinnias, please treat yourself to this long-blooming, ultra-robust dwarf variety!

The flowers are packed with layer after layer of petals, with a frilly yellow center to cap them off. Expect them to range from 4 to 5 inches wide, and to radiate deep pink to cherry red hues over a long, long summer season. Magellan blooms just 6 weeks or so after sowing, so you’re guaranteed a long and colorful summer!

Perfect for the front of the annual bed, containers, or as accents in the patio garden and perennial border, Zinnia Magellan holds up its big, heavy blooms beautifully, almost vanishing beneath their colorful heads at the height of the season. Deadhead the old flowers to keep new buds arising, and you’ll get even more glorious color!

There are 7 separate Magellan colors (including AAS winner coral) and a mix in this series, plus an economical collection of one packet of each. Try them all and you can landscape with a palette of ultra-bright, long-lasting color! Pkt is 25 seeds.
