JG, "...it would be nice to develop a large, multi-petaled, very toothy flower that would appear as if it had many more petals than it really did because of the toothiness..." I agree wholeheartedly. That's why my interest in toothy zinnia petals persists. What we need now is a "super toothy" mutant. The more "toothies" we grow, the better our chances of finding one. "...it might also be worthwhile to develop a "daisy" strain of whirligigs, having only one layer of petals, but multiple color combinations in the mix..." I have to agree with that. The examples you just showed are most convincing. The single, or near single, flower form doesn't hide the two-color or three-color patterns, and shows them to the best effect. I don't like a lot of yellow florets in the center, but maybe some scabiosa recombinations could replace those with something more ornamental. And I always want to re-design the petal form, into something a bit unusual. But a strain or strains of big multicolor daisy-like zinnias could be very successful. I should cross my good Whirligig color patterns with various other zinnias, including those with unusual petals (like the Dinosaurs) and those with modified florets (like the scabious). I have some Whirligigs coming into bloom now, but so far nothing unusual. Hopefully I will eventually get some "needle petaled" or "pencil petaled" Whirligig specimens. ZM

I am trying to find a parts breakdown for a SB14 mower. It has a Kawasaki engine and I have screwed up the carb linkage, etc. and need to see how to put it back together. Guess I'll draw a diagram next time. Thanks in advance

Bummer! Stress can do strange thing to our.....um.....bodies. I can imagine how impressed you must be! Laurel

I agree with Jemdandy. It has crumbs on it, so it looks like the scouring side of a sponge.
