Sunday Bouquet From My Zinnia Garden

by Jon Katz

I am enjoying the new ritual of going out to my Zinnia garden – the first garden I’ve ever planted myself – and snipping enough flowers for a bouquet. We have one in the living room, one on the dining room table, one in Maria’s studio.

I  love doing this, it turns out that gardening, something I’ve never done or wanted to do, is right for me. It is calming, affirming, and spiritual. And so beautiful. My garden is hearty and productive, I’m pruning faithfully to keep it rich and strong.

  1. Thanks for sharing your beautiful flowers! Hope you keep taking pictures of flowers in color, they cheer my soul.

  2. I love zinnias…so many color combinations! I bought seeds this year, then never had time to get them in the ground. Next year for sure!
