The garden always amazes me but every once in a while I'm literally stopped in my tracks... I planted three different size zinnia seeds this year, and one variety was Lilliput, written up as smaller flowers on about 18-24" stems. Waaaaay down front in the corner of the raised bed box was this itty little Barbie Size Zinnia:@) The flower itself was only about 1/2" across on a very delicate stem, the stem was about as thick as Barbie's finger. I just had to try to get some pics...
It wasn't easy because the camera kept trying to focus on Barbie's face instead of the overall scene, but I think you get the idea:@)
My zinnias:
Barbie says,
find joy in the little things, and...
🌼Have a Happy Day:@)
I LOVE those big ole Bubba flowers!! This may be the hint to have some wedding photos done later in the Summer, when the beds are frothing with the tiny blooms, and all the hats and bouquets and boutonierres you can make!! What a photo op awaits you! I still love the time we made a "squash wedding" of crooknecks dressed as the whole wedding party, including a white-collared minister, MOB and MOG, all parading down a long mirror on the Rehearsal Dinner buffet.
ReplyDeleteHow adorable....what a surprise that they were THAT small, and your girl looks so pleased. Our bunnies have loved ALL the seeds I've planted, Seems I will have to fence everything in, or raise everything up.
