What kind of flowers are these ??

i went back home- in mississippi- a few days ago and i saw these really pretty flowers everywhere ! they were out front of fast food places and also in people's yards. they seem to be growing thick like a bush and they looked like marigold's but i think they had more petals in layers on the flower than marigold's do. they were red, orange, yellow, and i think pink. they were sooo beautiful. i am in the process of selling my home and thought those flowers would be a beautiful touch to my backyard !! i just need to know what type of flower they are before i can find them. if anyone knows please help ! any ideas where on the internet that i can find a pic of these to make sure ??

Reply:My guess would also be something in the Chrysanthemum family (of which Marigolds are a part). Try checking out this website and seeing if that is what the plant is!

If that isn't the plant, try either going to a nursery to see if you can locate the right plant, or get someone in Mississippi to take a photo and then take that to a nursery. It MUCH easier to have a photo, although I realize it isn't the easier thing to remember to do in the heat of the moment heh. Anyway, good luck!
Reply:Its really hard to make a positive identification but going by your description It sounds like Chrysanthemums to me.
Reply:Probably zinnias, Zinnia elegans Dreamland mix. A very popular landscape annual for homes and businesses. Comes in all colors of the rainbow.
