In Arizona, there aren't many flowers that you can plant and have beautiful colors in the hot desert summers.
One of the most colorful exceptions is the Zinnia.
I have a friend who recently passed away who would always say, "Don't worry about it... the zinnias are in bloom and everything will be okay!"
I love to have zinnias growing and they make me smile when I see them even when it is 115 degrees outside. My friends Kim and Tammy planted many packets of seeds in their flower bed last year and it was beautiful! So I decided instead of an organized flower bed I would do the same this year.
They are such a friendly flower and they greet anyone who come to my door. If only I could keep my granddaughters from picking them!!! However, when they present me with the picked flower my heart melts. I always think of my friend when I see zinnias and the memories I have of her.

Love Zinnias! Since I knew we were solarizing the flower bed this year we didn't plant any Zinnias and I miss them. We will definitely plant them next summer.
Yours look great!
I like zinnias too! They remind me of my mother. Every summer we planted a large garden and the first row, closest to the house, was always a long row of zinnias. They are a happy flower.
Sunflowers and zinnias, can't have a summer garden without them!
