    Is Profusion Red-Yellow Bicolor Zinnia resistant to animals or disease?

    Profusion Red-Yellow Bicolor Zinnia shows resistance to general disease pressure, meaning it's less susceptible to these under normal growing conditions — though resistant isn't a guarantee against them in every case.

    Customer photo review of Zinnia Seeds - Profusion Red-Yellow Bicolor

    The first set of seedlings that I started indoors have been blooming for a few weeks and are exactly as described! My direct sown seeds from mid March are about to burst into bloom. I love how the blooms change color as they age.

    Customer photo review of Zinnia Seeds - Profusion Red-Yellow Bicolor

    I have grown other profusion series colors and wanted to try a different one this year and was not disappointed. They are vigorous, fast growing and bloom all season! These flower first bloom as a bicolored red and yellow bloom, but as the blooms age the colors bleed into each other and you are left with a softer color. Because you have constant new blooms mixed with the older ones you are left with a nice varied colors. Still has the same compact and profuse bloom as the other colors . These are shorter so meant for planters or front of border. I plant them as a mini hedge in my garden.

Profusion zinnias are typically valued for their vigorous growth, excellent disease resistance, and season-long blooms once established.
