    Customer photo review of Zinnia Seeds - Zahara Double Raspberry Ripple

    A powerhouse under the toughest conditions, even in a narrow bed at the edge of a busy road. The blooms open in a range of pink and red -- sometimes on the same plant -- all season long. Super simple to grow from seed, too. The pollinators love them! Planted in drifts, the garden wouldn't be the same without them, especially in a very hot, dry summer as we've had in the Northeast.

    Customer photo review of Zinnia Seeds - Zahara Double Raspberry Ripple

    I was super excited to get these but now that they are blooming they are white instead of shades of pink. They germinate well and are cute but not the color I was wanting.Maybe the ones that haven’t bloomed yet will be pink.

    Great annual! Started these in May and they have not stopped flowering even in our extreme heat and drought in south Louisiana. A huge bang for your buck! I will be buying these every year!!! Highly recommended if you need a long lasting annual. Lots of interesting colors on a single plant!

    Not what I was expecting. Could be user error but I’ve grown zinnias for years. I originally wanted them out in my garden to go with my pinks but my pinks didn’t survive the winter so I potted them. Not doing what I hoped for.

    Store owner replied: Hello Lani Kirk. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We're sorry to hear that your Zahara Double Raspberry Ripple Zinnias didn't perform as you had hoped. We understand how disappointing it is when a variety doesn't turn out as expected, especially after years of successfully growing zinnias. Zahara zinnias are bred for excellent disease resistance and reliable performance in hot, sunny conditions. Their bloom color can vary slightly from plant to plant, but they should produce attractive double flowers with the raspberry-and-white bicolor pattern expected of this variety. We reached out by email with resolution options but haven't heard back from you. We'd still be happy to help, so if you're willing, please reply to our original email and our Customer Care team will gladly assist you. We stand behind our products and hope to have the opportunity to provide a resolution and help you enjoy better results in the future!

    Really disappointing not one of these germinated, was really looking forward to seeing this beauty in the garden.

    I love these flowers in my front flower beds. Since the flower change as they age, there are a lot of variation on one plant. They look great mass planting them. It’s like a mini wall of happiness. I will always plant these.

    The seeds were easy to grow with about a 95% germination rate. I started them outside in the spring in trays. They transplanted easily. Shortly after I was thrilled with beautiful profuse blooms throughout the summer until a few days ago when we got our first frost. Would definitely recommend these.
