What a wonderful, thorough video, thank you! I started my first cut flower garden in my small yard this year at the age of 40 thanks to generous people like you making it so easy to learn and feel like it's possible to newbies. I'm enjoying watching the pollinators so much! Going to try even more next year. :) Now back to watching more of your lovely vids. Have a great rest of the flower season!

Nice explanation. Another thing that’s great about zinnias is the size of the seeds make them really easy to sow. I volunteer at Lake Forest Elementary School Butterfly garden and the children love holding zinnia seeds in their hands and counting out a few for each cup of soil. 🌼

But I think this summer I'm going to have zinnias growing inside all the time under grow lamp and then when they're ready just put them in the dirt. It is a good idea

Oh my God, the color varieties that you got are stunning. I love the vibrant colors offset by that light lavender. And the peachy color you showed in the beginning was stunning too. I have some growing right now. They are just babies though, about 3-4 sets of leaves. I think I will go ahead and start pinching. On the other hand, we have had so much rain that it seems like they slowed down their growth a little bit. I really hope that by pinching them they get branchy and keep growing strong. I only have like 10 plants because I planted some rather old seed, but I am totally going to root the tips that I pinch out and do my best to keep doubling their numbers. Wish me luck! :)
