- Paris C.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars9/26/25I’ll buy every year!!!
Even if I get a wonky pack, I’ll buy this pack of seeds every single year. These flowers stole the show around my yard for the 2025 growing season. Every section I planted grew as tall as me (5’2”) and the blooms were HUGE!!!

The Señora zinnias have been very reliable, much more than other zinnias in my garden. They come in multiple shades of pink, and I’ve been cutting on them all summer for small arrangements for my home. I’m definitely growing these again next year.

- Janice Z.Verified BuyerRated 4 out of 5 stars8/1/25Señora zinnias are doing well.
I would give them a five star, as they are very pretty with sturdy stems, great leaves, and beautiful mostly salmon cactus style and a rare light pink. I chose four star, as they did not germinate as well as Mazurkia or Key Lime Pie.
