Many plants exhibit a glowing violet ring at the base of the rays, creating a ... pricing and more

Red Spider This unusually slender zinnia is from the species Z. tenuifolia, giving it a distinctive graceful appearance in the landscape. My nephew, a landscape architect, suggested it would go perfectly with ornamental grasses. Narrow scarlet petals project from the disc singly, without overlapping at the base as other zinnias do. About 2' tall, 8-10" wide, with 1¼" flowers, these should have clo... pricing and more

Queen Lime Blush The ‘Queen’ series is impressive for the densely doubled heads and completely original color schemes it features. The Lime color in it’s purest form is both innovative and astounding, and in ‘Queen Lime Blush’ we get red anthocyanin thrown in to various degrees to create colors I really don’t have a vocabulary for. Crazy beautiful, long stemmed, upright and productive. pricing and more

Peruviana Red A completely different Zinnia effect than the other species we offer. Plants are finely featured, 24” tall and stiffly self-supporting, slimmer and more graceful than elegans, not so skinny-petaled as tenuifolia, and colors more muted than either. The color ranges from a rich matte red through shades of ochre to bright rust as the flower head matures. Propagate like other zinnia, spacing 6-12”... pricing and more

Persian Carpet 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. These are brighter in tone than the ‘Aztec Sunset,’ a mix of solid and bicolor petals in carmine, yellow, deep red, and white fringed shades. pricing and more

Peppermint Stick Cream to golden yellow petals are variously flecked, splashed, and blotted with shades of red dapples. A fun mix of unique patterns on 2" fully doubled blooms, plants 2-3' tall with an 8-10" spread. This variety strikes me as needing some selection to bring its colors in line with its name. The bright red-on-rich gold form doesn't strike me so much as "peppermint stick," as much as it does a "fire... pricing and more

Oklahoma Mix A healthy and vigorous tall mix of clear colors--red, salmon, magenta, yellow, pink and white spheres of 2-3" fully doubled blossoms. One of the most mildew resistant zinnias available, and a notably long vase life. I particularly enjoy the rounded flower form combined with the pure color brilliance on long stems. 'Oklahoma' maintains an essential and elegant form in a motley and diverse crew of ... pricing and more

Oklahoma Ivory A doubled and semi-doubled mix of Ivory tones on stout long stems with high resistance to powdery mildew. We helped Johnny’s save this variety from oblivion two years ago by planted the last 240 seeds in their inventory. Our crop was a success and the variety is once again available. Every year, there are varieties hanging in the balance between existence and loss. This is what genetic erosion l... pricing and more

Magic Bus What do you get when you cross Baggett's biggest orange zinnia balls with Zowie color schemes? A Magic Bus of psychedelic intensities and wayward dimensions, for sure. This is a very diverse group of plant statures, degrees of doubleness, and color patterns and blends. Most of these will make good cuts, but just having them in a garden to wonder at is really good enough. The magenta and neon red c... pricing and more

Jim Baggett's Choice Mix These brilliantly hued and diversely formed zinnias come from the great Oregon State vegetable breeder Jim Baggett, who made zinnias and dahlias his backyard avocation. Huge heads on long stems in spectral extremes of orange, yellow, red, magenta, and pink, with long, sometimes rolled or quilled petals. Spectacular. pricing and more

Fireball Mix The commercial zinnia 'Peppermint Stick' isn't very true to its name, having as many red-striped golden yellows (and unstriped white and yellow variations) as it does namesake red-striped whites. Those red-gold doubles are a tempting item for isolation, but I suspect that there is considerable genetic instability in that bicolor form. Thi... pricing and more

Cupcake Mix Another scabiosa-type zinnia mix (like Candy Mix) with a higher percentage of the more elaborated tufted disc flowers. Very bright reds and yellows, lavender, and apricot in cupcake-like mounds. Impressive stems. pricing and more

Crouching and Hidden, Dragons and Tigers This is a blend of two hybrid zinnias allowed to make seed together. Dangerous, I realize, but someone has to do it. This is where new varieties come from. Short 20-24" plants with doubled 3" flowers of red petals with ivory tips (Dragons) and scarlet petals with golden yellow tips (Tigers), and many variations thereupon. pricing and more

Candy Mix This mix contains a distinctive sweet innovation in zinnia elaboration. Here the breeders have chosen to double and enlarge parts of the disc flowers, as opposed to the petals (ray flowers). The effect creates a mounded cupcake-like disc surrounded by bright rays. This has spawned a whole new zinnia class that some call "scabiosa" or "pincushion" types. I find the enlarged disc flowers fascinating... pricing and more

Aztec Sunset Mix This is the short, compact zinnia species, generally 10–15” tall, but very productive on a stems/sq. ft. basis. Also less prone to mildew and other leaf grief. ‘Aztec Sunset’ is a mix of evening colors from orange-red through burgundy and into purple, fully doubled, often bicolored petals tipped in white or yellow. pricing and more
