Hi all,

This recombinant zinnia looked like it was poised to grab any bee that landed in the center. Those strange petals curved inward with incurved tips to give it a carnivorous appearance. It kind of made me wonder what prehistoric zinnias might have looked like, and if there were any prehistoric holdovers in the DNA codes of my zinnias.
