While traditional garden zinnias often wilt or succumb to foliage diseases in the sweltering dog days of summer, Jazzy Mix thrives on high heat and intense sunshine, creating an unbroken carpet of color.

• Striking Bi-Color & Tri-Color Blooms: Each 1- to 2-inch blossom showcases intricate geometric petal layering. The blossoms feature contrasting petals with deep burgundy, ruby-red, or copper-bronze bases that transition into bright golden-yellow, burnt orange, or cream-frosted tips.
• Superior Disease & Mildew Immunity: Bred from rugged Zinnia haageana native to Mexico, Jazzy Mix boasts exceptional natural resistance to powdery mildew, bacterial leaf spot, and alternaria, keeping foliage clean and emerald-green all season long.
• Cut-and-Come-Again Florist Productivity: Branching profusely from the base, each compact 20- to 26-inch plant yields dozens of long-lasting, sturdy flowering stems over an exceptionally long 60- to 75-day maturity window.
• Pollinator Magnet & Container Favorite: A magnet for monarchs, swallowtails, bumblebees, and hummingbirds. Perfect for border fronts, mass meadow plantings, vibrant window boxes, and petite rustic tabletop bouquets with a 7- to 10-day vase life.

"Jazzy Mix is hands-down the most carefree, disease-proof zinnia you can grow. When high humidity and August heat turn other flower beds into a battle against powdery mildew, this little workhorse never misses a beat—it just pumps out more rich, velvet-textured, copper-and-gold blossoms. Tucking a few stems into a mason jar brings an instant burst of radiant autumn warmth to the kitchen counter weeks before fall even arrives."

• Sowing & Germination: Direct sow outdoors 1/4 inch deep once the soil has thoroughly warmed to at least 70°F (21°C) and all danger of spring frost has passed. Seeds germinate rapidly in 5 to 8 days under warm conditions.
• Spacing: Thin or transplant seedlings to 9 to 12 inches apart in rows 12 to 18 inches apart. Adequate spacing allows the dense branching stems to fill out into bushy, flower-laden mounds.
• Sunlight & Soil: Plant in full sun (at least 6 to 8 hours daily) in light, moderately fertile, well-draining garden soil. Avoid over-fertilizing with high-nitrogen fertilizers, which encourages excess leafy growth at the expense of continuous blooms.
• Harvesting & Deadheading: For the longest vase life, harvest stems in the cool morning when blossoms are fully opened and stems pass the "wiggle test" (stiff and upright rather than floppy). Regularly deadhead spent flowers or cut blooms for bouquets to trigger non-stop bud development through the first autumn freeze.
