best performers in the summer garden

Zinnia "Dahlia Flowered Gold Medal Mix"

With summer well and truly behind us and as I have been busy with the annual post-summer garden clean up, I have taken the time to reflect on what performed brilliantly in the summer garden.  I thought of compiling a little list, in case other gardeners might like to try these varieties as well.
