ver the years, I’ve watched with amusement as different plants that have been around for many years suddenly get “discovered” and there’s a resurgence in popularity. Zinnias are enjoying just such resurgence now… and with good reason. The original zinnias are native to Mexico and Central America where they were found there by Johann Zinn in the 1700s who named them after himself. They were then bred to produce the many types found today.
