Another wonderful flower from the fine folks at Wild Garden Seeds. This one is a ridiculously beautiful zinnia with densely petaled flowers in lime-yellow-purplish-pink colors.
Here's how Frank Morton describes it: "The ‘Queen’ series is impressive for the densely doubled heads and completely original color schemes it features. The Lime color in it’s purest form is both innovative and astounding, and in ‘Queen Lime Blush’ we get red anthocyanin thrown in to various degrees to create colors I really don’t have a vocabulary for. Crazy beautiful, long stemmed, upright and productive."
