Zinnias

Who would not love zinnias? They come in the most beautiful colors and they are easy to grow from seed and love hot weather!. If only there was enough sun at my house. :(  I was coming back from running errands this morning and noticed a sign outside Stoney's Market in Virginia Beach which said "fresh-cut zinnias". Now I had to think about that for a minute but decided there was no way that I was not making a u-turn to check it out. I ended up with this nice bunch. Seriously, who could resist those? 
I have a feeling that I might return to the market for their sunflowers. Also brilliant!

    A native flower of North America and loved by butterflies and hummingbirds.
    Colorful perfection.

      Hi Pam!
      I'm always surprised by the many fancy colors of zinnias when I see them. I love them! Stoney's is at Hilltop, actually close to the hospital on First Colonial. I like to stop there when I'm in the area. They have fruits and veggies and flowers especially. You would not believe the selection of pumpkins and gourds in the fall. The place is covered!
