Lol. She's actually not mean. She just has been inflexible. There is only one way and it's her way.
If I take her at her word though, she really should have her local extension office come out and look at these plants. I want to mention that to her but I don't want it to be viewed as a challenge or sarcasm. Maybe she's really onto something. I don't see the methods working for breeding though but she's been growing for 41 years (her statement) and I know very little so 🤷🏻♀️
If you're on FB I can send you the link of a video and photos of her zinnias. They are lovely! I'm going to scatter some seeds like she does for my landscaping but I will give them a little food and water. She says not to pinch. I won't for these.
