    Such a lovely Zinnia! Isn't this the same one that you did the photos of it opening up? That was so awesome. Bet you are having some warm weather by now! Hope your Christmas season is very enjoyable!

    Yes Jeanne, it's the same flower (link included in post), still growing daily. I plan to add to the opening sequence in another day or two as it's still growing and opening more each day - I find it fascinating.

    Thanks to you, I am slowly falling in love with the zinnia..:-)
    P.S: I cannot take my orchids back to India. It's forbidden..:-( to take plants, seeds, bulbs from foreign countries to India, so also vice-versa. When we leave, I will be pass them on to my german friends who will continue to take care.
