Pretty Zinnias

It's still HOT here in Arkansas and my little zinnia garden is thriving! I planted them from seeds around the first of July. I'm a little obsessed with them and am always going out to look at them during the day. I noticed something was eating the petals so I went out at midnight and caught some grasshoppers chomping away! I put a stop to that real fast! lol...I just love all of the colors! I will be planting more next year for sure.
 
 Pretty!
 
 They sure do make a beautiful bouquet!

  5. Kristen, your zinnias are so pretty! They are popular here, as one of the most drought tolerant flowers; and they transition so well into fall. The bouquet that you created is lovely, as well!
