Chartreuse annual cutting flower

Envy Zinnia

Distinctive green zinnia blooms for cutting gardens, bouquets, and color-focused plantings.

Envy Zinnia earns the name with unusual chartreuse-green blooms that look almost electric beside pinks, purples, whites, and deep reds. Grow it as a bold single-color patch, thread it through a cutting garden, or use it whenever an ordinary zinnia would be just a little too ordinary. The strong stems and unexpected color make it especially useful in fresh bouquets.
