Last of the Zinnias...

Well I cut the last of my Zinnias last night. I get them cut the same way every year. “This is the absolutely last time I’m going to cover my flowers this year!” With the porch light glowing, I make my way to the Zinnia bed, being careful not to step on the new beauties I have planted this year. Standing tall and brave in my favorite vase they are the reminder of why I cover my flowers every fall, and why I always wish for an early spring.

Thank you ever so, Gardenscaper.

Your Zinnias look very pretty in that vase. I'm glad you enjoy growing them and I hope you get more next year :o)
