So gratifying, effusive, and long-blooming, Zinnia elegans ‘Benary’s Giant Salmon Rose’ is one of those summer annuals everyone should grow at least once — and then probably every year after. Strong, multi-branching plants reach about 3' tall and produce huge, super-double blooms up to 6" across in a glowing salmon-rose color that looks luscious in borders and bouquets.

Also known as Benary’s Giant Salmon Rose Zinnia, this mildew-resistant cut flower zinnia holds up well in heat and rain, making it a reliable choice for sunny cutting gardens, pollinator plantings, cottage beds, and large containers. Butterflies adore the blooms, and the long stems make generous, cheerful arrangements. It is especially stunning paired with Nicotiana ‘Lime Green’, blue flowers, white cosmos, and ornamental grasses.

Plant Zinnia elegans ‘Benary’s Giant Salmon Rose’ in full sun with rich, well-drained soil. Deadhead or cut often to prolong bloom and keep the plant producing. Explore more bold summer bloomers in our Zinnia collection.
