Love the color! Germinated well direct sow in 6a. Don't see any double petals like the photos. But overall I did like them.

I haven’t planted these yet because there are only about 15 very tiny seeds in the packet. For the price, I am pretty disappointed.

I grow a lot of zinnias every year and none of them come even close to the performance and health of these. I pop then into the dirt in May and water them those first few weeks then leave them alone completely after that. They're in full hot sun but get no watering from me, no fertilizing, no pruning since they stay compact, no dead-heading. They're just fantastic. It's October now, all of the other zinnias in my yard are dying from some sort of mildew that they get every rainy fall. Not these though! They're as cheerful as ever, covered in blooms. Always covered in butterflies. Our temps have been down in the mid to low 40s at night this week but these don't care. Completely unbothered and truly low (no!) maintenance. I will never be without these
Brittany 5/5
I put these along the front border of my flower bed and they bloomed well and was compact. They would also be great for containers. I personally did not like the color as much as I thought I would so I won’t use these again but that is just a matter of opinion. The seeds themselves germinated well, transplanted well and bloomed well. My pink stripes were not as dramatic as the photos but they were there, Could be difference in growing area. If you like white, dainty single blooms and compact flowers, these will do the trick.
Barb 4/5
From the seeds I received, I was only able to get two to germinate. This was disappointing. Zinnas are usually easy to grow and have great germination rates. I am not sure what was wrong with the seeds I received.

Zinnia Seeds - Zahara Starlight Rose
Store owner replied: Hello Moroccan Queen Bee. Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that only a couple of your zinnia seeds germinated, as they are typically known for being easy to grow and reliable. While germination can occasionally vary due to conditions or slight differences between batches, we understand how disappointing that can be. We are addressing this with our seed supplier. We’re glad we were able to provide a resolution and appreciate you giving them a try. As always, we stand by our seeds and are here to help if you need anything throughout the growing season!
I was surprised at how short these plants stayed, but it ended up being a perfect little border line for my larger flowers. The pink in the middle of the flower was present, but it wasn't quite as rich as the photos (much lighter). All in all every one I planted produced at least one flower, with pink in the center. I would definitely recommend these (I'd even buy them again!).
Kristen 4/5
Disappointing. NONE of these germinated. Waste of money and effort. The seeds I bought for other zinnias from Eden Brothers did so well last year so I assumed these would do well for us, too. I was wrong.

I have purchased other zinnias from Eden with great success, but these were duds. Not a single plant from the packet I received.
