1:3 :: zinnias

One of the great thing about zinnias is their super interesting colors. There are bright ones, slightly muted ones, and variegated ones. 
These are my favorite colored ones...the limey green and salomon-rose zinnias (especially when combined with brighter hues!) are so lovely. This photo is from Life on the Balcony.


I like the combo of the cake flowers...it tones down the ultra-formal-ness of the cake/silver plate. This bridal feels so unexpected and i don't think many brides would go for it. but I LOVE dark scabiosa/chocolate cosmos and mustard yellow! the white queen annes lace brings back the femininity. Finally, a garden arrangement i made last summer...there's that limey zinnia with brighter ones and some coleus foliage!
