    Customer photo review of Zinnia Seeds - Pumila Salmon

    These did so amazing in my cut flower garden this summer! I started 200 seedlings inside and maybe 1 out of 10 didn’t germinate. I’d call that a win! They have been super healthy and absolutely stunning!

    Customer photo review of Zinnia Seeds - Pumila Salmon

    I purchased these specifically for their coral coloring and they have not disappointed in that regard. Mid size blooms, not great for cut flowers, but that was my bad for not reading the description better, beginner here! I found that these seeds were very easy to grow.

    I've grown so many zinnias from other stores with no problem none of theses seeds germinated

    Zinnia Seeds - Pumila Salmon

    Store owner replied: Hello Vero. Thank you for sharing your experience with us at Eden Brothers. We are sorry this variety did not perform as expected. Germination can be influenced by a number of factors, and some specialty zinnias may require more precise conditions than standard varieties, particularly regarding soil warmth, moisture consistency, and seed placement. We are glad we were able to connect with you regarding a resolution. Because you've experienced similar issues with multiple seed types, we still recommend a soil test if one has not yet been performed, as it can help identify conditions that may be affecting germination success. We appreciate your feedback and the opportunity to help, as we want you to be successful with some of these specialty varieties!

    They were beautiful but definitely not as muted as the photo implies - a lot more pink and bright orange.

    Zinnia Seeds - Pumila Salmon

    These were beautiful, with huge blooms in so many shades of salmon. I'll want them every year! They a bloom a bit later than the tall varieties I also planted. Best bloom came in mid August in Zone6b.

    Planted these along with Eden’s cut and come again variety. That variety did fantastic but nothing came up from the Pumila Salmon seeds. Disappointing

    Seeds germinated fine but the flowers are very small and nowhere near as large as what’s in the pictures
