Zinnia Elegans 'Scarlet Flame', Tall Garden Zinnia
Zinnia ‘Scarlet Flame’ boasts rounded, semi-double to double flowers, 4-5 in. across (10-12 cm), packed with brilliant scarlet petals. Resembling dahlias, the bold, large blossoms are borne on very long, sturdy stems and make a big statement in the landscape. Blooming profusely over a lengthy season extending from early summer to frost, this popular Zinnia is a vigorous and an excellent performer. Looking stunning in the sunny perennial border, its tall stems and long vase life, make it wonderful for cutting.
