They are the perfect cut flower—the more you cut, the more you get.Park Picks Purple Zinnias thrive in the sun and heat of summer, and ask only for well-drained soil. Their biggest enemy is mildew, so water them with a soaker hose or other ground-based spray to minimize wetting the foliage—or, if this isnt possible, water them early in the day, so that the leaves can dry off before nightfall.
