5 weeks later I have blooms ! The whirligig is a very fiery red and some magenta, which a colour different than what I had saved it from. The button box looks identical to its parent which was a vigurous well branched orange zinnia.. pretty cool ! Now I know to start mine first of May with the plan to plant out June 10th or so
