I started these from seed April 1, 2012. I do not like styrofoam but failed to find another "green method". You can clearly see that the exact same seed grown in larger, reusable pots are gnificantly bigger and healthier. Given that these flowers grow to a height of 3 to 4 feet or more, I need to gently separate each one into its own larger container. The photo you see behind this post is a 3.5 foot zinnia I grew and while taking pictures one day years ago, a Monarch Butterfly acknowledged my plea to strike a pose for my camera. I do not ever expect this one in a million chance encounters to happen again!!
