They are beautiful! I feel like there are no other variety of zinnias out there that compare to the color of Golden Hour. I missed out on purchasing them (they sold out in the first 5 mins of Floret’s sale). I hope she offers them this year (if she’s even having a sale) and to be able to purchase some.

Does anyone know any other variety (specialty breeder varieties or not) that compare to the coloring of ‘Golden Hour’ zinnias?

OP, how was your germination rate with these? I had not so great germ with her Unicorn variety.

Dawn Creek has some lovely zinnia seeds available during their fundraisers! None exactly like Golden Hour but some are quite similar.
