Clock - Orange Zinnia

The zinnia plant, both flowers and leaves, were used by many southwestern tribes as medicinal and ritual herbs. Some have said that the Navajo tribe considers the zinnia one of the sacred life medicines. Still other, Pueblo, tribes are thought to believe the zinnia a symbol of wisdom. We do know, however, that zinnias were used by some southwestern tribes to make brightly-colored dyes and paints. The zinnia, itself, is representative of lasting friendship, affection, constancy and goodness. The orange zinnia, specifically, is symbolic of happiness, energy and warmth. Of course that may be because those are attributes of the color itself. From 1931 to 1957, the lovely zinnia also had the distinction of being the Indiana State Flower. It was replaced by the peony in 1957. A beautiful, orange zinnia adorns the face of this gorgeous clock. Whether in your home or at the office, this clock adds a lovely pop of color and a fabulous, functional, focal point to any wall.
