Zinnia Lilliput Mix

The compact zinnia — and in many ways the most useful. Lilliput Mix produces masses of small, fully double, beehive-shaped pompom flowers in a vibrant explosion of scarlet, pink, yellow, orange, rose, and white on bushy, self-supporting plants that stand up beautifully to the elements without staking.

Where the giant varieties make a statement, Lilliput provides a non-stop riot of colour from midsummer to the first frosts — a stable feeding platform for butterflies and a generous, cheerful presence at the front of any sunny border.

Grow it at the front of a hot border and let the butterflies find it. They always do.
