I got a 'bonus' packet of zinnia seeds from Baker Creek with my last order. They're not something I regularly grow, but these looked interesting so I started some. They're blooming in miniature - I'm assuming this is from the lack of sun! Usually the plants are 2ft high before they start blooming but these are less than a foot, and the flowers are also very small. They're also not all the same, even though the seed packet said they were a hybrid 'Zinderella Peach'. Hmm, not a stable one, for sure! Anyway they will be fun for my grandkids to pick when they're here in a few weeks.

This is what they're supposed to be, only bigger:

And these are some various other shades, and forms from the same seed packet.
