Zinnias - Undisputably Easy to Grow

Next year, there will be plenty of zinnias in my annual beds. These are different from the pom-pom, big flowered zinnias that I have growing in the garden. The plant is compact, uncomplicated, and continues to bloom even when I'm not busy deadheading the spent flowers. Sorry these pictures are a little fuzzy, but you get my drift. I'm aiming towards easy summer care, and petunias, with their constant need to be deadheaded, are becoming less favorite!

I see little girls in sundresses made out of fabric made from these pictures. Running around your back yard and playing with Dad's...I mean the neihbor's dog.
