    Customer photo review of Zinnia Seeds - Cactus Snowman

    This one grew slower and bloomed later than the rest of my zinnias, but blooms are as expected and it is a nice healthy plant with multiple blooms. Very pretty.

    Unfortunately, these seeds didn’t take off. The germinated well and quickly, but once in the ground I only got two white blooms (out of about 15 sprouts) that was not very full. Definitely could have been user error, but was a little disappointed… will try a new kind next year :)
