Khubbab plant Zinnia F-1 Peter pan.its cactus flowered & very robust grower.i have grown it for many years.F-1 Magellan is improved Dahlia flowered hybrid over Peter pan.Flame peter pan is my favorite color.But you will not find seedlings in nurseries.you can easily get its seeds from seed stores.its better to direct sow zinnia seeds where they have to flower.
Rudbekia is never my choice.

Re: Summer 2013 wish list
Rafique sb i like separate colors but Portulaca will look great in mix.Zinnia gives much impact in separate colors.

Umar sb for our harsh summer potolaca is my first most choice. It looks equally good in separate and mix colors. Looks beautiful in soil beds or in containers.
Its flower dont fade out in hot sun. Really suitable for landscaping too.

Re: Summer 2013 wish list
Yes you are right Rafique sb its really suitable for our hot summers.many summer annuals do not survive our summers.Portulaca is one of the few fit for our summers that exceed even 45 C.i grow sundial in separate colors.its the best annual portulaca.last year i got some new three colors in the perinnial portulaca.the per is very god but the color range is limited.
