Zinnias were my ‘gateway’ plant into the world of gardening. When I was a child, a bag of Fritos came with a packet of zinnia seeds. I cleared a little spot along our back fence and planted the seeds. I was about seven and I was hooked. Almost sixty years later, I still love zinnias!

Hi Amanda! I accidentally clicked your video just now. I've been planting Zinnias since I was 15 y.o. in the Philippines and it brought joy within not only to myself but my family and people who passed by our house. They voiced out their appreciation which made me happy. I'm now 65 and and I've been here in USA for 10 years. I thought I wouldn't have the chance to plant them. When we moved to Utah this year, I tried to plant early in May but failed 3x due to unpredictable frost. Fortunately, I somehow succeeded and the flowers were beautiful! Thanks for your tips because I put shade on them, wet the petals and leaves, I fertilized every 2 weeks and I don't cut the flowers because I wanted to enjoy them longer. I learned a lot from you. I shared this video to my sisters and friends in the Philippines.🏵️❤️👍

I grew maybe three zinnias last year. Only one grew well. I was unhappy with the powdery mildew. I did not cut the flowers and I'm sure thats what contributed to the poor growing. This year I started a bunch from seed and transplanted them when they got some true leaves, two sets. They are just now starting to bloom. Im glad I watched your video. I learned I should cut the flowers early and continuously. Will be looking at that tomorrow. And since you showed all those pictures of the different types it gave me an idea that I will use for next years garden. Thank you.

Great video, and lots of excellent information. I'm in zone 4B-5 in Eastern Ontario, Canada. For some reason I have never grown Zinnia's in all my years of gardening, so this year I've purchased several pkg's of different kinds, and looking forward to having so many beautiful cut flowers over a long season! :)

One of my favorite KZfaq channels, You Can’t Eat Grass, is in Canada and they do have some extensive videos on flowers including zinnias. They have been very successful with them!

Love gardening but had never planted zinnias until last year. I lined the front of our garden with the deck planter boxes full of zinnias and marigolds. So pretty. Started seeds indoors this year. Will plant more outside too. Great video!

Thanks for sharing your beautiful zinnias! I have been growing them from seeds for a couple of years and I’m going to start cutting them back for more blooms. I noticed some mildew this evening while watering,what can I do for that? I love going out in the evening and watering them! I consider it my therapy and thinking time! Great video! From Ft Worth.....
@shesamadgardener3 жыл бұрын
+Loretta Pressler try watering from below only and keep the water from getting on the foliage. You can also treat with a simple dish soap and water mixture.
@katiesbluesi2 жыл бұрын
Or water earlier in the evening where leaves have a chance to fully dry off before late night.

Love your channel, love how you just get to the point and you have a sweet personality and I can hear you. I absolutely love zinnias. Bought a bu ch of zinnia seed and marigold seeds from the dollar tree last year, oh my goodness I had all kinds and colors and my marigolds got huge, but the flowers weren't big. I subscribed. ❤
