Description
If your garden needs a bold jolt of warmth, look no further than Zinnia elegans 'Benary's Giant Orange'. Part of the legendary Benary's Giant series, the gold standard for cut-flower zinnias, this variety produces enormous, fully double blooms in a rich, saturated orange that practically radiates heat. The flowers are dinner-plate-sized, long-stemmed, and sturdy enough to hold up in a vase for days.
An easy annual that thrives in full sun with regular water, 'Benary's Giant Orange' is a workhorse from summer through fall, blooming prolifically the more you cut it. It's a magnet for butterflies and hummingbirds, and pollinators of every stripe can't resist those fat, pollen-rich blooms. Deer-resistant, beginner-friendly, and heat-loving, it excels in hot, humid climates where other flowers throw in the towel.
Plant in generous sweeps for maximum visual impact, tuck into containers for patio drama, or grow it as a dedicated cutting garden staple. However you use it, 'Benary's Giant Orange' is pure summer glory in zinnia form.
