ZINNIA HAAGEANA 

 " PERFECTION." 



4481 We had a line of this in our trial grounds last summer, 

 which proved to be one of the most distinct and meritorious 

 of the many novelties on trial, and which was noted and 

 much admired by many visitors. The seed was sown April 

 29th, came into bloom June 25th, and was never out of 

 flower until hard frost, early in November, a period of over 

 four months. The plant is of dwarf, compact growth, 9 to- 

 10 inches high by as much through, with fine foliage, and 

 bears a multitude of very double flowers about 1.^ inches 

 across in a most unusual range of colors, including rose- 

 tipped canary-yellow, maroon-tipped cream-yellow and 

 wallflower-red, velvety garnet, etc., and altogether makes as- 

 pretty a border as anything of recent introduction. It 

 should also prove useful in filling baskets, vases, etc. Like 

 other Zinnias, it will grow and flourish in any sunny location.
