The Kind of Care

Remember that children
marriages and
flower gardens reflect
the kind of care
they get.

I don’t know the name of this flower but it wanted to be photographed! So bold and bright.

* Purple Prince Zinnia...A royal addition to the zinnia color palette. Purple Prince's intense rose-purple has a purity of color that entices and delights the eye. Growing vigorously up to 3' tall, dahlia-flowered zinnia stays showy even in the rainiest climates.

Thank you for your comments and helping me identify this flower. I believe it to be a Purple Prince Zinnia and have added a link above. :)
