Hello All,
I have continued to get variations on the tubular petaled zinnias.
That one reminds me a bit of some undersea plant. This is another tubular specimen, whose petals end with a "flower" composed of very narrow tubes.
This is a closer view to show the narrow petal ends curved details.
That bloom reminded me of a thistle bloom.
I am currently "perfecting" my indoor zinnia growing techniques, by experimenting with Oxine. Oxine is interesting stuff and has some ingenious chemistry.
