I see purple in the one zinnia bloom and soft pink in the other of the two zinnia picture. Interesting always. Good luck on something spectacular!

ZM - Tell me what you think. I\'ve always know tuberoses as white (whether Pearl double or Mexican single). Now I\'m seeing where some of the seed order catalogs (with bulbs) are offering a single yellow bloomer and a double pink bloomer. If I purchase some of these and plant along side of my white tuberoses - will all the bulbs stay true to the color they are? You know that tuberoses reproduce from the multitude of bulbs that they make each year. When I harvest my tuberoses, I bust up the bulbs into smaller sections of bulbs for replanting the following year. Any comment on the tubers would be appreciated.

Thanks!
