Details
Zahara blooms non-stop on super-compact plants, drawing bees and butterflies into the garden. Renowned for its ability to withstand heat, humidity, drought, and just about anything else, Zahara is the first bedding Zinnia that can truly claim to be disease-resistant. It's also very long-blooming, prepared to continue well into autumn as long as the warmer weather holds. These orange beauties are excellent cut flowers for fresh bouquets.
