There. Some zinnias. So far only the purples and violets and pinks are blooming. I sure hope I get some reds and yellows soon.
Next year I'm going to plant a hell of a lot more zinnias.
mine reseeded from last year. I have two that are nearly as tall as I am. but pink is all I'm getting, one red finally showed up and one scraggly orange. I pull off the spent flowers and toss them on the ground so now have a new wave of about 12" tall coming on. probably all pink as well.
I love zinnias. They are so cheerful.

ReplyDeleteThey're one of my favorite flowers. You can never have too many.
ReplyDeleteI've never understood growing flowers instead of food - I am *all* function over form - but I may be coming around.
ReplyDeleteEspecially in my little neighborhood now, planting some nice flowers in front would be a community service.
i tried to do zinnias from seeds this year and they didn't take (i think the birds got the seeds).
ReplyDeleteyou inspire me to try harder next year!!

ReplyDeleteThat would make a good bumper sticker!
