Astronaut Nurses Zinnia To Full Bloom

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — The International Space Station now has a bright pop of orange, thanks to commander Scott Kelly’s green thumb. Kelly showed off his gardening results – a thriving zinnia with a beautiful orange-yellow bloom – over the weekend. He posted photos of the flower on his Twitter account. “Yes, there are other life forms in space!” Kelly said in a tweet. Last month, Kelly had to fight off mold that threatened to kill all the flowers in the space station’s mini-greenhouse.
