VBE 3 Ae yy, 
Alphabetically Zinnias are last, but for range of size (from 
6 inch plants with button-like blooms, to 4 ft. plants with 
flowers big as Dahlias); variety of color, ease of growth and 
free-blooming qualities they easily rank as “First” among 
the annual flowers. 
Zinnias love warm, even hot, weather, don’t sow seed too 
early; 10th of May is soon enough and they may be planted 
up to the end of June. Give them plenty of room to de- 
velop; half their full grown height apart is a good rule to 
follow. For continuous bloom, keep faded flowers picked.
