Seasoned beauty......



As I harvested blooms from my zinnia's this white zinnia had already started to shut down for the season. One couldn't ask for a better texture and mottled color that this. The entire tray of blooms are now all shriveled and dried out. I think I will wait on more week before I put the seed in envelops.

That's what my husband calls me...a seasoned beauty! LOL (Just kidding!)
This Zinnia is really quite lovely, I like the mottled color.

Excellent image. And will we see a final picture of the same blooms once all the colour has been finally leached out of them?

It is still such a pretty flower-you can see what it used to be.

Yes, the beauty remains. So we'll see new blooms next year, I look forward to it.
