Zinnias On Sunday


This is Sunday in my Veggie Garden. An 8 foot row of zinnia's grow along the border for cutting. The photo above was taken at sunrise. I love the soft light on such powerful bloom colors. Click for a larger view.
This is the Green Envy from Burpee Seed 2009.

  5. I have had such good luck with zinnia's this year that I want to buy the ones with special names. I did buy some that Martha Stewart had for sale but I need to get some new colors and kinds. Yours looks really great. I like the gridded rows of flowers.
