    I love zinnias! They come in so many colors and sizes and look wonderful in a vase. I used to have a cutting garden with zinnia, snapdragons and cosmos, among others. When the kids were little we would cut flowers and sell them in mason jars at a stand in front of the house. They always did quite well! : )

    I really dont think I have a favorite, I love them all, but love pinks and purples, blues, whites...............
    I have a collection of diffrent irises, planted all around my garden fence. I am hoping they will spread.
    Do you have a favorite flower?
    No favorites, love them all. Last year my hollyhock got about 7 ft tall and we had a horrible wind storm(tornado close by) and it broke it, uprooted my only tree in my yard and knocked over and ruined the kids' wooden play set. The thing that was the most upsetting was that I never took a pic of the hollyhock before then. :( maybe it will get that big again this year.
