zinnias

Yep...another flower post. Zinnias this time instead of sunflowers.

With their bright colors, zinnias quickly catch the eye and make people happy. Out at the farm are three long rows of zinnias and the customers love to take photos of their children standing by them. The zinnias are full of bees, butterflies, hummingbirds, and other birds flitting from flower to flower. On my breaks at work, I love to stroll past this blast of brightness and of course take a few photos. Looking at the photos I've noticed the crown of tiny yellow flowers that separates the petals from the center and the center is the same color as the petals, or very close to the same color. 

Lessons from the zinnias: Persist through life’s challenges, embrace joy even in difficult circumstances, and continue to bloom brightly, no matter our obstacles.


A yellow zinnia is totally yellow...even the bug on it!
