Annuals to Plant with Profusion Zinnias

I would like some suggestions for annuals I can put with Profusion zinnias. They are heat tolerant and don't take much water. I have a tendency to plant the wrong kind of flowers together. Some need more water then others, so I would like to know what to plant with the Profusion series. These will go in my flower boxes on the south side. They get full sun. Thanks!

Hardiness Zone: 6a

Portulaca or ice flower looks great as an other planting, even a mini rose.

Sounds pretty :)
Periwinkles, I love their foliage. They bloom about the same time as zinnias.
Petunias also.
What I like about all three, they will tell you when they
need water, and will bounce back quickly.
Maybe tuck some herbs in there too. I've been surprised
by my oregano this year. It decided to come back on its own. Don't you love when they do that!
Maybe some summer blooming bulbs too.
Don't forget to mulch.
