Random ramblings from the cluttered brain of a Brit ex-pat North Devonian trying to keep cool in the steamy summers and warm in the frosty winters of The Great White North.

Zinnia
The colours of late summer.
I wish I had planted some of these happy flowers in the spring. I'll have to remember next year.
This is a scheduled post while I'm away for a few days.
BEAUTIFUL!!!! Such gorgeous colors, aren't they? I have some Flower pictures up right now, too...If you get a chance when you return--I think you will like them.. Hope you are having a good time away...!
Wow, have not seen those for years, used to be big down under when I was a kid. My grandparents had oodles of them in their garden.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice break.

I need to plant zinnias next year too. :)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your time away.
Zinnias have nice pastel colours I think, but we find them hard to grow. They are very prone to disease - Dave
ReplyDeleteLove the flowers and enjoy your time away. Its always fun to get the batteries charged.
ReplyDeleteI don't have zinnias either, but I got some z-pics at a friend's house. We'll miss you while you're away. Hurry back.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely LOVE zinnias!! my mom did, too.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Love so much Zinnia!
ReplyDeleteI hope you are having a great time!
Zinnia are long-lasting. It is "hyakunichiso" in Japanese meaning "one hundred days flower". Each and every color in the collage is lovely.
ReplyDeleteWhat gorgeous colours. Have a good time away.
