I have been picking lots of zinnias this week, putting little bouquets all over the house, as I can tell their days are numbered. The leaves are pretty ratty and mildewed by now, but the blooms keep coming and I will keep picking until they stop. I just love my zinnias, so colorful and cheery. I had some great varieties this year, including a 3-foot tall scarlet zinnia with 4"-wide blooms. So showy! I plant most of my zinnias from seed, and I wish I had kept that seed packet, because it's definitely a winner.
