Grow one of the most elegant old-fashioned zinnias with Miss Willmott Zinnia Seeds. This distinctive variety is known for its large, fully double blooms in a delicate soft salmon-pink shade, sometimes appearing blush, peach-pink, or creamy rose depending on the light.
The flowers grow on tall, upright, branching plants with strong stems that are excellent for cutting. Miss Willmott is especially beautiful in romantic cottage gardens, pastel flower beds, and fresh summer bouquets. Historical seed catalogs also describe it as a prized florist variety for its refined salmon-pink coloring and impressive flower size.
With regular cutting or deadheading, plants continue producing flowers throughout the warm season until frost.
