Default Beautiful bloom, UGLY foliage!

Probably my favorite all around flower is the Zinnia. By a pack of
assorted seeds and you get all the sizes, shapes and colors. But the
foliage is the color of a different horse.
It starts out nice but then becomes a pale green and dried and
shriveled.
Is this typical of this flower? Or am I giving it too much or too
little of something.
I have them in pots in various parts of the yard and in the ground
around the "estate" (yeah, sure, the estate).
