Zinnia Peppermint Stick Mixed Color is a distinctive heirloom variety prized for its striped blooms and exceptional resilience across challenging growing conditions. These non-GMO seeds produce semi-dwarf plants with robust stalks supporting 1 to 2 inch flowers featuring striking peppermint-striped petal patterns in complementary color combinations. The variety demonstrates remarkable disease resistance, including strong tolerance to powdery mildew and common fungal pressures, reducing intervention needs and supporting organic cultivation practices. Plants exhibit notable drought tolerance and heat resilience once established, making them particularly valuable for arid regions and water-conscious gardeners. Peppermint Stick's compact to semi-dwarf habit suits containers, borders, and mixed plantings without requiring staking or extensive support. The variety attracts pollinators effectively, drawing butterflies and bees that enhance garden ecology while providing visual interest. Deer resistance adds practical value for gardeners managing wildlife pressure. Seeds germinate reliably at 70% or higher, establishing vigorous plants that reach full bloom within approximately 80 days from sowing. Flowers perform well as fresh cuts, maintaining color and form in arrangements for extended periods. Plants thrive in full sun with well-draining soil and moderate moisture, rewarding deadheading with continuous flowering through frost. Peppermint Stick's combination of striking appearance, disease resistance, and environmental tolerance makes it an excellent choice for gardeners seeking distinctive color and reliable performance. These non-GMO seeds are sustainably grown and packaged in eco-conscious, recyclable materials supporting responsible gardening practices.
