Sunshine Challenge - Zinnia

[ivyskeep]

Prompt 7 for the July 2023 Sunshine Challenge is for Zinnia which represents:

"While Zinnia has many different meanings, it is usually associated with friendship, endurance, daily remembrance, goodness, and lasting affection. The Victorian meaning of Zinnia are thoughts of an absent friend or a friend you haven't seen in a while."

I haven't had luck growing zinnias in great quantity, but I got this lovely dark pink bloom last year. I'll veer a little off the description and dedicate this one to people I'd like to get to know better.
