Saturday Photo Hunt--Pink

Dutch Flower

My husband went to Holland in the spring and all I got were some lousy bulbs and a really good Edam. Actually I loved the bulbs except that they were labeled in Dutch and I could not identify them all. This lovely pink flower showed up just in time. We've still not had our first frost (the "frost date" for my area is October 1st) so the flower is blooming amidst the fallen leaves. Someone tell me, is this a zinnia or a dahlia?
