Purple Dream Mix Zinnia Seeds

Purple Dream Mix Zinnia is an elegant collection of richly colored blooms featuring beautiful shades of lavender, lilac, orchid, rose-purple, magenta, violet, plum, and deep royal purple. The fully double and semi-double flowers create a soothing yet dramatic display that adds depth and sophistication to sunny gardens. Blooming continuously from early summer until frost, this premium mixture combines exceptional heat tolerance with outstanding flower production, making it an excellent choice for both landscape plantings and fresh-cut arrangements.

Garden Uses
Purple Dream Mix is perfect for cottage gardens, cutting gardens, butterfly gardens, pollinator borders, mixed perennial beds, patio containers, and mass landscape plantings. The cool-toned flowers pair beautifully with white cosmos, silver dusty miller, blue salvia, ornamental grasses, pink gomphrena, white alyssum, and soft yellow flowers such as coreopsis or rudbeckia. The rich purple palette also creates elegant monochromatic plantings or striking contrast when combined with bright oranges and golden yellows.

Growing Information
Direct sow seeds outdoors after all danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed, or start indoors 4 to 6 weeks before transplanting. Sow seeds approximately 1/4 inch deep in fertile, well-drained soil. Germination normally occurs within 5 to 10 days at temperatures of 70–80°F. Plant in full sun for maximum flowering and strong stems. Mature plants typically reach 24 to 36 inches tall with a spread of 18 to 24 inches. Water deeply during prolonged dry periods, provide good air circulation, and remove spent blooms or harvest flowers frequently to encourage continuous blooming until frost.
