HelpRe: Zinnia
in reply to a message by Dragon_Clarinet (nsi)
I prefer Azalea, but love both. Azalea has cuter nickname options (Zaley, Lea, Leelee, Ayzee/AZ, Zay/ZayZay, Zale-ya), and besides I think it is an actual botanical name, whereas Zinnia was after the surname of Johann Zinn.
Azalea is a pinkish red to me, whereas Zinnia is an purple or orange.
(Really funny, but after I said what colors they remind me of I googled their pictures, and Azaleas were Pinkish red and Zinnias were purple and orange!)
