Z is for Zinnia
Zinnia is a genus of 20 species of annual and perennial plants of family Asteraceae, originally from scrub and dry grassland in an area stretching from the American Southwest
to South America, but primarily Mexico, and notable for their solitary
long-stemmed flowers that come in a variety of bright colors. Zinnias are popular garden flowers, usually grown from seed, and preferably in fertile, humus-rich, and well-drained soil, in an area with full sun. They will reseed themselves each year.
These Zinnias were blooming at a small park in an industrial zone I visited a few months ago.
