They may be known as hearty summer flowers, and a mecca for birds and butterflies, but nothing shows off fall more boldly than beautiful Zinnias with a bounty of colors like bright red, hot pink, purple, orange, and golden yellow. Their vibrant colors brighten up the most tired gardens at the end of summer, make the perfect handpicked bouquets, and mix beautifully slipped in with pumpkins and fall décor. Their cheerful blooms continue to inspire us until their last cutting before the first frost.
