Zinnia 'Thumbelina' Mixed Color is a compact heirloom blend recognized for its refined aesthetic and reliable garden performance. This All America Selections award winner from 1963 produces dwarf plants reaching just 12 inches tall, making it exceptionally versatile for edging, container cultivation, and small-space gardening. The variety generates abundant semi-double to double blooms in a balanced color spectrum—pink, purple, red, orange, white, and yellow—providing visual interest without requiring multiple plantings. Plants exhibit vigorous, bushy growth habits that naturally encourage branching and continuous flowering throughout the season. Flowers attract pollinators effectively, supporting butterfly and bee populations while adding ecological value to gardens. Seeds germinate reliably at 60% or higher, establishing plants that reach full bloom within approximately 80 days from sowing. Thumbelina thrives in full sun with well-draining soil and moderate moisture, performing exceptionally well in containers, raised beds, and mixed borders. The variety's Mexican heritage reflects its heat and drought tolerance once established. These non-GMO seeds are cultivated sustainably and packaged in eco-friendly, recyclable materials that support responsible gardening practices. Thumbelina's proven track record, compact habit, and prolific blooming make it an essential choice for gardeners prioritizing both form and function.
