These are one of the tall zinnia varieties which comes in a wide array of mixed colors. This mix is also known as the 'Dahlia Flowered' Zinnia. They are easy to grow and the blooms are attractive to insects, especially butterflies.

Thanks Ladies,
I wanted to find the original picture that I made the banner from, but somewhere it still evades me. Two others did pop up that show just how vibrant these can look. This particular patch was planted in a row alongside a row of potatoes. And they really do attract butterflies & bees.
