Peppermint Stick Zinnia Heirloom Seeds

75–90 days — Zinnia Seeds – Peppermint Stick

Peppermint Stick zinnias are a stunning heirloom flower known for their bold streaks and splashes of color. Each bloom is unique, with petals striped in red, cream, yellow, orange, and even pink, creating a lively “carnival” effect in the garden. Large double and semi-double blooms stand out as cut flowers and attract pollinators all season long.

These heat-loving annuals are easy to grow and bloom prolifically from summer through frost. Their tall, sturdy stems and vibrant coloring make them perfect for bouquets, borders, or mass plantings. Peppermint Stick is a favorite among cut-flower growers and home gardeners alike for its long-lasting color and resilience.

Grow style:

• Containers: Performs well in medium to large pots; ensure adequate spacing for airflow.
• In-ground: Thrives in well-drained soil and full sun; deadhead spent blooms to prolong flowering.
• Raised beds: Excellent choice for cut-flower gardens and pollinator plots.
• Hydroponics: Possible in larger systems, but less common.
• Small-space gardens: Very suitable—great vertical color with prolific flowers.
• Prolific?: Yes, continuous blooms until frost; dozens of flowers per plant with regular cutting.

Sowing Instructions: Direct sow outdoors after last frost or start indoors 4–6 weeks before. Sow ¼ inch deep, spacing 6–12 inches apart. Germination in 7–10 days at 70–75°F. Prefers full sun and average soil; do not over-fertilize as it reduces bloom production.
