Zinnias

What’s happening on Mist Mountain?  A Walk Around in April, a very unpredictable month.

z with words

And last but not least, Zinnias.  Lots of colors, supposedly easy to grow.  I have trouble growing them from seed but always try anyway.  Eventually, if I really want some, I will go and buy starts.  From that point on they seem to need little care and I usually intermix them and marigolds.

So ,once again, I planted some seeds yesterday, and in a few weeks I will buy a flat of starts and replant, because it is now at this moment, not misting but pouring buckets and will probably drown my seeds.

  1. What a lovely flower to end the challenge with! I’ve never tried to grow zinnas from seed, but one year I planted lots and then pressed many of them and made a lovely wreath that brought me joy all winter.
