These look like gerbera or African daisies rather than zinnias. But I am still glad that the rain has stopped.

I don't care what they are - the afternoon is clouding over, and this picture has improved my mood.

Thanks for your wonderful flower photos! They are terrific. They improve my mood too!

If you want to grow gerbera daisies, I recommend you start from seed so the plants can adapt to your yard's micro-climate. The full-grown potted versions often originate in a greenhouse setting, and the transition into real nature can be rough.
