Zinnia 'Envy'
Zinnias are long flowering annual plants with bright coloured flowers, ranging from white yellow, orange, reds and purple. They can be singles, semi doubles or doubles and vary in size of bloom and height. They make a good cut flower from which the plant benefits by producing more blooms. Bees and butterflies are attracted to them. 'Envy' (or 'Green Envy' as it is sometimes sold as) is a tall growing plant and unlike other Zinnias can be planted into semi shade, the flowers are a green/yellow colour and many petals appearing almost like doubles.
