ZenMan said:Hi Keith,
You have some unusual looking zinnias. That bottom one might have viable green seeds attached to its petals. I have made some crosses with scabious flowered zinnias and now have some results from those crosses. This is an example:
Regular scabiosa flowered zinnias have a single row of guard petals and a more uniform looking center. We had a rain with high winds last night, so I have some cleanup and repair work to do in the garden. More later. I do have some other interesting specimens I want to show. I really get a kick out of breeding zinnias.
