Hi all,

As some of you may already know, I breed my own zinnias, purely as a hobby. This hybrid zinnia has Burpeeana heritage, and it is a single spreading plant. It has a wider plant than the regular Burpeeana zinnias. I particularly like it because it has several large flowers open at the same time, which can look good in the landscape. I plan to save seeds from it and cross it with other similar zinnias as well. I have a couple of protective nets on two of the flowers, to keep their pollen safe from the bees. The nets are barely visible, because I made them from black netting fabric.
