In a Pinch
If you have ever grown Zinnias (a brightly colored, fast-growing and heat loving flower) then you are probably familiar with the term “pinching”.

If a Zinnia is not pinched during this phase, it does not mean that it won’t survive and produce blooms, but it will not be given the opportunity to reach its full potential. On Sunday we did just that with our over 600 plants already in the ground – many of which had produced their first bloom of the season. As a grower, this is always such a hard task for me because I hate to not allow the flower to continue growing in its own capacity.
