First blooms on 'Benary's giant salmon rose' - early July, zone 5a. The color is a bit harsher than I had hoped, and the blooms are not terribly double yet.

Color has been somewhat variable on this cultivar so far. This one is a softer shade of salmon with less red in the center.

In the fall, these turned a deep coral color that I liked a lot.

With its densely petalled, Dahlia-like blooms up to 6” across & growing to more than 3' tall, we love Benary's Giant Zinnias!
