About Short Stuff™ - Zinnia

Short Stuff™ is a compact, upright zinnia series with double flowers offered in bright color options. Its tidy growth suits the front of sunny beds, small containers, and seasonal displays. ## Growing Conditions Grow in full sun and well-drained soil, keeping the root zone moist until established. Short Stuff™ plants are suited to packs, small pots, and bedding, and attract pollinators. The [Syngenta series profile](https://www.syngentaflowers.com/ams/product/flower/70021359) describes the series habit and mid-spring-to-summer flowering; the [NC State Extension Zinnia profile](https://plants.ces.ncsu.edu/plants/zinnia/) provides broader guidance on foliage, growth, wildlife, and garden uses. ## Maintenance Deadhead faded flowers to encourage continued bloom, but leave some seedheads for songbirds. Allow air to circulate around foliage, and water during establishment or extended dry weather.
