50 Seeds Zinnia Polar Bear Dahlia-Flowered White Zinnia elegans
Zinnia Polar Bear is a dahlia-flowered zinnia grown for its fully double, crisp white blooms that stand out clearly in beds, borders, and cutting gardens. Plants are vigorous and free-flowering through the warm season, producing sturdy stems and layered petals on large flower heads that hold well when cut.
These zinnias work especially well in mass plantings, mixed annual borders, and pollinator-friendly garden spaces, where the bright white flowers create contrast against deeper colors. Blooming continues over a long period when faded flowers are removed, making them a dependable choice for bouquets and garden display.
