Welcome!
Hi Monika,

Zinnias are my favorite annual, too. That's a nice looking vase of zinnias. You have quite an assortment there. This is a recent view in my zinnia patch and a close-up of one of my big petaled zinnias that develops "frosted" petal ends only a day or two after the petal emerges.

I have quite a bit of culling to do in my zinnia patch. It is my intention to leave only good breeder-quality zinnias so that, at seed-saving time, I won't have to worry that I am saving seeds from a "reject" zinnia that I should have culled. I enjoy breeding zinnias.

I tip my hat to you.
