I am a city gardner in zone 5/6. Dramatic temp swings in this area with cold winters, and hot summers. Love to grow my own fruit and veggies!

Sunday morning visitor. #zinnia #summerblooms #grownfromseed #pollinator #purpleprince #butterfly
Wow amazing 👏👏👏
@treefrog44 @cyndi Would u happen to know what type this is?
Definitely a #swallowtail! https://www.joyfulbutterfly.com/black-swallowtail-butterflies-indoors/
Black swallowtail 😉 it's a beauty 😍
They host on parsley, carrots, dill, Queen Annes lace, and fennel @saco Do you have any of those in your garden?
Thankyou for i.d. @KariSamuel @cyndi @treefrog44 I have loads of Queen Annes lace throughout my yard for them to enjoy
That's a beautiful butterfly! Great photo
That's great to hear @saco I would check for caterpillars, you may be seeing more butterflies around! #femaleblackswallowtailbutterfly
I will keep a look out for them, now I know what they like!! @treefrog44
It got a lil chilly around here last night, low 50's. This guy tucked himself in under a zinnia petal. #zinnia #purpleprince #sleepingbee #bee #beefriendly (Sorry about the bad quality pic, extremely low light.)
One big 'ol #purpleprince #zinnia #latebloomer
Beautiful 😍
Still so pretty😊
Gotta love a late season bloomer!! #zinnia #purpleprince #grownfromseed #summerblooms #laborday
I agree. And these are wonderful!
#zinnia #purpleprince #summerblooms #annual #grownfromseed #laborday
Great picture!
Stunning 💖
Without fail, everytime I look at the #zinnia a #bee is enjoying their pollen. #beefriendly #summerblooms #purpleprince #grownfromseed #pollinatorsloveit
The bees love #zinnia so much they use them as beds! (The fly on petals was awake) #sleepingbee #summerblooms #purpleprince
🤫Oh, sweet #bee. #fly
At one point the fly landed on the bee, but kept on sleeping !! @lovestogarden
That is hilarious! 😂😂❤️
That's so cute. I had one sleeping on my zinnia this am. Lol.
Just a hint of purple showing. #zinnia #purpleprince #grownfromseed #summerblooms
This is exciting! 😎🌱🐝🌺
The butterflies will be looking for them! @columbiariver
I love mine! I will never be without zinnias again!! 😄
Me neither Kari. The butterflies just keep coming saco 😄🦋🏵🦋🏵🦋🏵🦋🏵🦋🏵 @karisamuel
Zinnias, the people pleaser!
Yup, zinnias rock!! @KariSamuel @kimguy @columbiariver
💯%
#newgrowth #zinnia #purpleprince #grownfromseed
I do like zinnias, it's my first year growing them, I'll be growing them again 👍
@alan1111 - I just said the same thing!! I will never be without them now!! 😋
Zinnias are starting to open up now. #purpleprince #zinnia #grownfromseed
From last year's seed. #zinnia #summerblooms #purpleprince
Fabulous photo 😍
That's a pretty one!
Thanks @suerichards & @gjones
Just getting started. #zinnia #summerblooms #purpleprince
I have one of your gifted green envy zinnias blooming. They seem to be more delicate than the variety I usually grow as only one plant survived our weeks of hot temperatures!
@gjones - I sown Green Envy seeds too... and I think mine are in the same state!
Sorry to hear that @gjones @karisamuel Zinnia seeds can still be sown now if you have any left
A summertime classic grown from last year's seed. (They are sister plants @KariSamuel ) #zinnia #purpleprince #summerblooms
Very pretty!
Beautiful photo 😍
#flashbackfriday #zinnias #summer2017
Oh so pretty!
@saco do you have any companion plants with your zinnias. I'm planning a zinnia garden and would love companion plant ideas.
Zinnias are a great companion for vegetables in the garden @petitelake Pollinators love them, heirloom varieties are great. Purchase once, and you can save seeds for life each season!!
Never have I ever seen a #butterfly around here on the first day of November. #purpleprince #wildlifewednesday
Climates, they are a changin'! Awesome the last of your zinneas get butterflies love. 😍
The climate has always been changing on Earth, hehee @columbiariver
Point made Mr. Saco. I've never witnessed it changing as quickly as we are experiencing now.
Oh, I'm just joking around, @columbiariver It is noticeably warmer here, the past few years, summer to winter, shorter Fall and Spring.
You're such a kidder!
#zinnia #purpleprince #beneficialinsect #butterfly
Such a beauty! Great pic Mr saco.
Thats what my students call me, hehee @columbiariver
Well, Mr saco it is then! 👍✌
Wow! That's a great capture! Such a beautiful butterfly!😍
📸👏👏👏🐝
I'm really digging this color combo. #zinnias #purpleprince #greenenvy

Oooo nice!🤗
#zinnia #purpleprince #macro
First bloom of the season!! #zinnia #macro #purpleprince
Yay, and a beautiful color!
I'm quite pleased, most the zinnia I planted didn't fare so well this season. @lesliecole49
Great colour!
I have some little 99 cent annual zinnias that selfseeded all over the yard, (birds?) I dug them and put them in a hollow tree stump. They're doing well and such a pretty orange. I really ought to post them
