I’ve added zinnias to the list of things that can survive even my attempts at gardening.  The zinnias have survived being planted in a bed that was water-logged so much this summer that I was surprised anything could survive.  They also survived several hail storms and a few pounding rains.

We were surprised by how much was still blooming at the Denver Botanic Garden in September. I hope I can remember that I want to plant some celosia next spring.

I like these dyc volunteer flowers almost as much as some that I’ve planted.
