 DAHLIA-FLOWERED ZINNIA 



4480 We are greatly impressed with 

 this splendid new strain, which we 

 have had under observation for the 

 past two years. The plants are 

 of strong, vigorous habit, fully 3 

 feet high, producing mammoth 

 flowers averaging 6 inches across 

 by 3 to 4 inches in depth, similar 

 in shape to the double Decorative 

 Dahlias, and which is nicely shown 

 in our illustration above. The 

 range of colors not only include 

 the usual shades, but many un- 

 usual tones, such as salmon, old 

 rose, cerise, strawberry-red, etc. 

 As the result of careful selection 

 the size, form and colorings have 

 been much improved the past 

 season. We offer a splendid 

 mixture. 20 cts. per pkt. ; 3 pkts. 

 for 50 cts.
