From Fundraiser to Seed Sale
Thank you to everyone who has donated to our fundraisers as we transitioned from flower farming to zinnia breeding. We deeply appreciate your kindness and support.That support has allowed us to transition from having a fundraiser to having a seed sale.
In our 2025 sale we will be offering lower quantities and lower prices so more people can have access to the seeds.
We will again offer a random mix of the three varieties, Muted pastel, New Parchment and Shades of Salmon in each packet.
Watch for news about our seed availability here and on Instagram @BlommaFlowerFarm starting in November 2024.

BLOMMA'S SEED SALE!
For those interested in obtaining our Zinnia elegans seed, will are offering a mix of exclusive seed from our summer 2024 breeding program while supplies last.
This will be the only opportunity in 2025 for you to receive our seed.
WHY?
There has been so much demand for our zinnia seed that we have decided to give more space to zinnia seed development. This sale is intended to support our breeding efforts and get these wonderful new varieties into your hands. Your contribution will allow us to continue to bring you the beautiful varieties you've fallen in love with and to further develop the latest beauties you saw last summer as well as breed for other new, wonderful surprises. We want to be able to continue to develop our seeds to make them available to everyone so that you can grow these blooms on your farm to sell, in your garden to add our genetics to what you already have, or just to enjoy. We kindly ask, in support of our efforts, that you do not resell our seed.
Our quantities are no match for large scale breeders, but we want to make them available as we have them, building our stock over time.
ABOUT THE SEED
The seed we are offering as part of this sale will be a packet of a mix of the variety mixes we grew out in summer of 2024 and some open pollinated packets of seed, possibly pollinated with other beauties on the farm by the bees before isolation. Even in the isolated seed mixes we can't guarantee exactly what will bloom out of the individual mix you receive, given these are not fully developed varieties.
However, what we can guarantee is that all the seeds we are sending have been collected from double flowers only. While some singles may still pop up, the majority should be semi-doubles or doubles. You can also expect the majority of blooms in the range of colors associated with the varieties from the selection shown above. Part of the fun of custom bred zinnias is waiting to see what the blooms are! While most should be very similar to those pictured, it's possible you may grow new colors and forms that no one has ever seen before!
It is also possible, due to zinnia genetics, you will also see a small percentage of more typical bright colors pop up as these varieties are still in the development process.
For those who want to save seed from their Blomma zinnias this summer, we recommend sowing 4-6 weeks indoors before your last frost and planting out once the chance of frost has passed. If you don't get frost, wait until your nighttime lows are consistently above 55°F to plant. Cull any plants with colors or other traits that you don't care for as soon as you identify them to avoid unwanted crosses. Allow the remainder to cross as you wish or isolate special keepers for your own use to hand pollinate.
Returns are not accepted.
