Our friends at Wild Garden Seeds are our source for these spectacular short-statured zinnias that come in mix of solid and bicolor petals in carmine, yellow, deep red, and white-fringed shades. They attract a riot of insect pollinators. Frank Morton says, "My introduction to the wonders of compact zinnias. These are so resplendent and low lying that you do wish you could lie down in them to watch the winged life."
