I thought I had posted this here but I can't find it now so here goes... I found some zinna seeds from a pink large zinnia that got lost under the steps in our basement...I wasn't sure where to plant them so I put them in a container off of the patio with some dark purple calla lilys in the center....to my delight, I ended up with pink zinnias of all shades of pink , white ones, orange ones and yellow ones...

Beautiful flowers and so healthy, what a lovely find.I really like the pink ones. Zinnias seem to come up in whatever colour they feel like, I wonder if the seeds will produce the same colours next year.
Zinnias are so eye catching aren't they? They always bring a smile to my face. You certainly have a lovely mix of colours there. :-D
Sherry Love them all. Had four containers with Zinnias. Had rescued them many times-coons turned them over.Fish oil in the soil.Being in the country.
The ones I buy already started from the nursery tend to get the mildew on them when I plant them in the ground but these have grown so tall, I hold my breath when we get bad storms and downpours...now today it is suppose to hail. These are in a container and I did use worm compost in all my containers and flower beds this spring...they have some morning shade and then late in the day shade, I wasn't sure how they would do with the shade.
I planted some Zinnias for the first time this year... Now I think I'll always have some... they are so pretty... and your's is no exception!
A very happy flower! Zinnias make me think of Glenda because when I first joined "The Stew" she sent me some seeds :-D
