I fell in love with 'Envy' Zinnia when it first was available. I made 'Packer Bouquets' for my farm stand with Envy, White and Yellow Zinnia:

My all-time favorite is Will Rogers. The PERFECT red:

I used up old and new seed this season, so I'm excited to see what I end up with. I didn't tag anything. I love them all. :)

I find myself wandering out to the garden a couple of times a day to just stand & watch the activity on the flowers & to marvel at the colors & various petal patterns - gives me a mental lift & cheers me up every time.

Weather has been gorgeous today, but got very windy this afternoon. It played a bit of havoc at the church picnic with things blowing away if you didn’t have them pinned down. The funniest thing I saw was a guy coming down the food line & he had lettuce on his plate along with a lot of other food. A huge lettuce leaf blew off his plate, flew down the table & landed in some deviled eggs! He never even noticed. A lady at the deviled eggs tried to get his attention to come get his lettuce & could not, so she finally gave up & just put the lettuce on her plate. It was a nice drive in the country going to the picnic - long enough for my knee to cramp, but we made it.
