    Zinnias

    This was my first year gardening. I had one planter box of zinnias where I used a combo of peppermint sticks and California giants. Turned out beautiful!

    Easy and gorgeous!

    These zinnias were so much fun! I started my garden as a total beginner last year and these zinnias were my most successful plants. Gorgeous, hardy, and easy to grow.
