I Grew Floret Little Flower Girl Zinnias (In Australia)

Written By Phoebe Grealy

This was my first go at growing Floret’s zinnias and they worked out! 

The seed company Veggie & Flower Garden Seeds brought the Floret Originals seeds over to Australia this year (after being quarantined and thus off limits to anywhere outside of the US), so I had to try growing some!

There are a whole heap of fun Floret Originals varieties, but due to the expense of importing them to Australia, one packet ran at around $35! I only indulged in one packet of the Floret Little Flower Girl variety and I thought I’d share my results below. The colouring is really pretty and they are smaller sized blooms, but very cute. I don’t regret the investment!

And if you’re looking for other flowers to grow beyond zinnias, check out my Seasonal Planting Calendar for ideas below too!

The tones of Floret’s Little Flower Girl zinnias went so well with the sunflowers and amaranth I also had growing
