The new Profusion Zinnia
According to one article Profusion Fire and Profusion Apricot perfect for the border there are a few new zinnias on the garden scene. The Profusion Apricot comes with coral petals and a terracotta centre while the Profusion Fire is decorated with scarlet petals and an orange centre.
They like to grow in full-sun and will only reach a height of approx 40cm (15in) with a mass of colour. These zinnias are sure to be a standout as a border plant and mixed with other striking annuals will look an absolute treat.
I haven't heard whether the Profusion Fire or Apricot zinnias are available in Australia yet but I'm sure we'll see them when spring comes around.
Who's responsible for this...?

That's pretty sweet that they've developed a dwarf zinnia. I just planted some zinnias in containers, and I'm afraid they'll get too big by the end of the summer...

Yes Nelumbo. They look great and could work well in containers or as low border plants.
