Today I'm taking you back to my father's garden.
There I found a colored field of Zinnias.
Zinnias are annual or perennials (there are more species), which are also used as cut flowers.

Their name comes from the discoverer, Mr Zinn.
Zinnias are sun worshippers, who like to sow themselves.
Butterflies and bees love it!

They must be in well-drained soil, otherwise they won't.
Our clay soil is hopefully for them.
Fortunately, we always have my father፦).

Zinnias bloom in high summer, if you're lucky they bloom until October.
There are many colors of these flowers, as well as many species.
According to many, they are old-fashioned, but if you like color in your garden... Zinnias!
