I wondered whether the uneven development of the bloom on this specimen was genetic or not. I decided to keep it and be on the watch for future asymmetric blooms.

Incidentally, I continue to wonder what are those little white dots on the edges of zinnia leaves? They show up in several of my pictures, and seem to be fairly evenly spaced. I wonder if they perform some function for the zinnia.
