🇦🇪 UAE Growing Calendar & Tips
Because we are currently in mid-October, you are at the perfect time to plant zinnias in the UAE.
-
Perfect Season: Zinnias are grown as an autumn-to-spring annual in the UAE. Sowing them between October and February allows them to mature and flower beautifully during the cooler winter months, avoiding the intense summer heat that can scorch them.
-
Sunlight: They require full, direct sun (at least 6 hours daily) to produce large blooms and strong stems.
- Watering: Water them deeply at the base of the plant. Avoid wetting the leaves, as zinnias can be prone to powdery mildew if their foliage stays damp overnight.
