Your Sunday Best

The beautiful
Zinnia,


almost mature...



and in it's full glory.




Beauty at every age,
like a fine wine
and
you.


Thank you for hosting
Nancy

Love Zinnias ... mine are yet to bloom; mostly volunteers from previous years, and it seems to take them forever to bloom!

Planted mine from seed still waiting for the bloom :)
