A real breakthrough in the world of Zinnias, Zinnia 'Profusion White' is a stunning cross between Zinnia angustifolia and Zinnia elegans which combines the best traits of both species: disease resistance; drought, heat and humidity tolerance and easy maintenance (no deadheading). It boasts single, pure white flowers, 2 in. wide (5 cm), that are so abundant that, as a group, they do stand out. As the flower matures, a circle of small golden stars surrounds its center disk. Borne atop sturdy stems, the eye-catching blossoms float above the fresh green foliage and make a bold statement in the landscape. Blooming profusely over a lengthy season extending from late summer to frost, they are perfect for the sunny border and make lovely mini bouquets. This plant resists powdery mildew allowing Profusion White to flower profusely in the fall when other zinnias deteriorate from mildew.
