Welcome!

Your zinnias are splendid! What a riot of color. :-)

I've been following this thread on hybridizing weird & wonderful zinnias: The thread "It can be fun to breed your own zinnias." in Annuals forum
Looks like a fun DIY project, although so far I've just enjoyed the photos rather than undertaken any crossing or culling myself.
We're all learners, doers, teachers.

You will learn a lot from ZenMan. I did. As we speak, I am out collecting dried seed heads for next year.
