I admit it ~
I'm in love with Zinnias.
They are such prolific blooming annuals and I can not tell you how much I've enjoyed having them in the garden this year. They stand strong and tall even in this summer's drought. They are always hosting bees, butterflies and hummingbirds whenever I trod out to the garden. Their blooms last a long, long time and they make excellent cut flowers. I'm hooked and will not garden without them again. Here are a few photos of our Zinnias we've mixed in with our boxed vegies this year:



I wish I had fields of them! Here are some online ordering sources for Zinnias:
