Zinnia

Zinnia are colourful and cheerful flowers to have in the garden. They self seeds easily and become like weeds sometimes. Opps..... I better don't tell the word "weeds" on my plants. Every time I tell a plant grow like weeds....soon they perish or become unhealthy in my garden....May be plant do have some kind of feeling or understanding from our reaction! ;)

Zinnia - cycle


Zinnia is beautiful flowering plant from the family of Asteraceae. They love the sun very much and love rich soil. It's favoured by butterflies. Anyone who wants to attract butterflies shall plant Zinnia.

They self seeds easily and grow without much fuss! Thanks to German Botanist Johann Gottfried Zinn who
introduce this plant to us!



I have a patch where i planted Zinnia but now it's all mixed with other self seeding plants such as ruellia and Aster.

dried seeds ready for sowing
