First zinnia

I was a bit disappointed with this year's flower patch as so far the Californian poppies, a bunch of cornflowers and various kinds of chamomile and daisies seemed to be the most flowers to come up but I had not realised the zinnias were on their way ! This is the first one to open up :-) And to my delight there's also another chicory plant with lots of buds growing strong plus the agapanthus suddenly has many buds starting to burst out of their covers.  More colours on the way , yay !
For Flower Friday with many thanks as always to Anni/BikerBear for hosting this floral challenge for so many years now !

Thanks very much for the kind comments, stars and even a heart for yesterday's natural animal abstracts and for al the entries for Abstract Thursday !
