Appearance and Growth Habit
Zinnia Swizzle Scarlet Yellow will have massive, display flowers that are 4 inches in diameter. The flower will be deep scarlet towards the base which fades to golden yellow around the tip of the petal in an effort to appreciate a stunning contrast. The plant will be compact and between 10 and 12 inches in height, thus being perfect for use in small bed gardens and potted flowers.
Besides its color, this variety also has sturdy stems and tight growth. Other tall varieties of zinnia have to be supported by staking, but Swizzle Scarlet Yellow does not and is an easy flower garden filler.
Zinnia Swizzle Scarlet Yellow Ideal Growing Conditions
Zinnia Swizzle Scarlet Yellow is a variety that is simple to plant and can even be planted by an amateur gardener. With the proper conditions, you will have an endless display of flowers from late spring right through the first frost.
- Sunlight: These zinnias require sun. Six to eight hours a day of direct sunlight will provide maximum growth and color.
- Soil: A draining soil. Zinnias will thrive in a great diversity of soils, but richest and loosest is ideal.
- Watering: Frequently water but never overwater. Letting soil dry slightly between waterings to prevent root rot and fungal infection.
- Fertilizer: Ordinary slow-release general-purpose fertilizer to promote good growth. But lower in nitrogen content, so it does not grow leafy with fewer flowers.
- Spacing: Planting the zinnias 8 to 12 inches apart promotes aeration and prevents infection such as powdery mildew.
Blooming and Maintenance
One of the highlights of Zinnia Swizzle Scarlet Yellow is that it too possesses a long flowering period. The blooms will begin to bloom in weeks after planting and keep producing new blooms. Deadhead the often-opened flowers in a bid to maintain it in flower. This will channel the energy of the plant into flower production rather than seed production.
Since zinnias are annuals, they last only for a year. They do self-seed rather easily, though, so you will have new growth next spring where they were.
Pest and Disease Management
Even though relatively low maintenance care, the zinnias from time to time get infested with pests like aphids and spider mites. Wash them using a proper water spray or insect soap spray. Once again, to discourage fungus disease, avoid spraying at the top but water bottoms up and plant set for maximum air circulation around plants.

- Flower Borders and Beds: Owing to their bright hue, they are most appropriate in garden landscapes.
