Hi Carol, Welcome!

wheresmy70cuda said: I grow zinnias every year and i would love to know how and when to breed them. It sounds great to be able to do this and see what happens, could be very interesting.


I hope to lay out the essentials of breeding zinnias for fun in subsequent messages in this thread. Since you already grow zinnias, you can start breeding them now, by deciding on what you would like to see in the zinnias that you breed. For a comprehensive selection of zinnia varieties, check out the Hazzards online listing.

Just enter the word "zinnia" (without the quote marks) in the Search box at the upper right-hand corner of their web page. That will bring up the first of many pages of zinnia offerings.

If you are like me, you will change your mind from time to time, depending on what you see in the zinnias that you grow. But that can be fun, too.

I tip my hat to you.
