Zinnia from seed that just made it to the garden last so small but still blooming. Nice bright color and small flower size. Some form of this zinnia can be mistaken for marigold without a close look.

Thank you Motinot. I'll be trying them again. I transplanted late and they didn't get very big. Great color though.

Thank you. I'm proud of my seed results this spring. Planted a little earlier out and this would be a nice little bush of these. Next year of course. :-)

its quite an achievement to get from seed to flower ~ you are justifiably proud.

They came up from seed quickly and did well, I just left them in little plugs too long. They got a bit stunted, though they still bloomed. :-)

Hi GT ! I did the same last year and was impressed at how long they lasted, wonderful flowers !

Yes, they are. :-) They will probably have a place in the my garden for years to come.
