Zinnia 'Peach Glitter'

🍑 Zinnia 'Peach Glitter' – shimmering elegance in gold and apricot

Zinnia Elegans 'Peach Glitter' is a zinnia developed by Dreams & Seeds through the breeding of two American lines known for their soft colors and metallic luster.

'Peach Glitter' catches the light in a magical way – with flowers in creamy white and apricot shades, often with a shimmer of gold or rose metal.

The flowers vary between semi-double and double, and the petals sometimes have a slightly shimmering surface that gave the variety its name.

The plants grow 60–80 cm tall, vigorous and profusely flowering, perfect for both cutting and borders.

✨ A variety for those who love shades that shimmer, change with the light and never look exactly the same twice.

🌿 Cultivation & care

• Sowing time: Pre-cultivate 4-6 weeks before the last frost.
• Germination: 3–7 days at 22–25 °C.
• Sowing depth: about 0.5 cm. Keep the soil slightly moist until germination.
• Transplanting: When all risk of frost is over. Harden the plants gradually.
• Distance: 25–30 cm between plants for good air circulation.
• Location: Sunny, warm and well-drained.
• Care: Pick regularly for cuttings – this stimulates abundant flowering.

✨ What to expect

This generation (F₂) originates from a selected cross between two closely related pastel lines.

The result is a relatively stable color palette where approximately 70–80% of the plants have the typical Peach Glitter tone: creamy white, apricot and golden with metallic shimmer.

The remaining plants may show slightly lighter or warmer shades – but all share the same soft, elegant expression that has made the variety so appreciated.
