| I ordered a bunch of seeds...this wasn't one of them, but I can't recall what I seeded (spring sow) in this spot so I don't even know which vendor to ask! |

| Thank you! It looked familiar...but I always thought Zinnia were bigger-the flowers on these can't be bigger than 1/2" across. |

| There are lots of different zinnias, some are much bigger. Yours looks like a sweet one. |

| That's Zinnia angustifolia (aka Z. linearis) ...one of my all time favorites. Colors are very limited, but they are a long lasting, disease free, non-fading spot of color in any sunny border. NO deadheading required. I especially like the white....it w8 very bright all summer long; a perfect contrast to the other colors in my perennial/annual garden. For those not familar with this plant, it grows into a little mound...spreading about as wide as it is tall. Thrives best in the full sun. |
