Creeping Zinnia (Sanvitalia procumbens) - Introduced over 200 years ago from its northern regions of Mexico. Well distributed and usually used as a ground cover or in container and hanging basket displays. Flowers resemble small black-eyed Susan with short petals and brown centers. Plants will spread quite quickly as a ground cover and bloom for most of the growing season once they start. A very low maintenance species. Creeping zinnia is an excellent border or ground cover and its trailing habit makes it ideal for hanging baskets and containers. Grows best in well-drained soil and full sun. Dead-head spent blooms to prolong the flowering period.
