Known as the Mexican zinnia, Zinnia haageana have smaller, narrower leaves, making them more tolerant of hot, dry conditions and winds. Zinnias are commonly used as summer bedding plants, where they provide a splash of colour in borders and pots.
‘Aztec Sunset’ bears masses of double flowers in a variety of colours, on dwarf, bushy plants. Plants have excellent weather resistance and are ideal for dotting around a sunny border or planting in pots for a patio display.
