I decided to grow some of these straight Zinnia species this year (zinnia peruviana, native to Arizona as well as the Americas) and I just got my first Bloom. It's the little yellow guy on the bottom. Put the other zinnia in for size comparison. Cute! 💛

I did some deadheading on my cobweb thistle and threw the flowers on the ground. They looked like the first photo when I threw them on the ground and then made seeds anyway, second photo. So cool. Remind me of milkweed seeds.
