ReplyDeleteNo rain in July. XO
Wonderful zinnias. It is nice to see others post there flower beauties.
ReplyDeleteMerisi, zinnias are flowers that I so loved in childhood. I thought that they had all the paint box colors, or perhaps in my childhood, it was more of the Crayola color assortment? No matter what it was, I just loved their petals's hues, but did not truly love the feel of their stems and leaves.
ReplyDeleteOh what a confession!
Thank you for your visit and comments. I am still reading Mr Zweig, inbetween the lighter fare that I mentioned in my post. Promising to write about his writing eventually.

Thank you all! :-)
ReplyDeleteFrances,
I am looking forward to hear from you about Zweig!
My favorite is the second photo - such a bright, rich color.
ReplyDeleteI also love zinnias -- especially as cut flowers in my kitchen, but the heat this summer was too excessive in Minnesota and their blooms were disappointing.
ReplyDeleteHexe,
ReplyDeletethe rich golden light of the early evening illuminated the flower beds, it was a delight to capture it.
You certainly bring out the best in zinnias!
