Zinnia elegans - Lime Green Dahlia. A native to Mexico, this Zinnia is a compact mounding annual that will bloom from June to frost. The unusual green flower is a conversation piece as you do not see green flower blooms too often. The full pom pom bloom is tightly packed with the petals filling it out nicely. Easy to grow from seed and no muss , no fuss type plant that requires very little. The 4 -5 inch flower poms fill the top of the plant and you want to deadhead to keep them coming. The Butterflies and bees are fans of Zinnia as well and will visit often. Deer and rabbit tend to leave them alone. They are capable of taking the heat and some drought but try to water when needed to keep them blooming on. Zinnias are always best planted en masse, put several together and see how Awesome it is!
