Jbantasy Zinnias 



Miscellaneous Types 



3178 Zinnia Linearis. A new and unusual 

 Zinnia that more than makes up in charm 

 what it lacks in size. Dwarf bushy plants 

 8 to 10 inches tall literally covered, with 

 single, medium sized flowers. Blooms are 

 golden orange with a stripe of lemon- 

 yellow in the center of each petal. Blooms 

 six weeks after seed is sown. Pkt., 25c. 



3151 Curled and Crested. Large, double flow- 

 ers, with curiously twisted and curled 

 petals. Height 2 ft. Pkt., 10c; i/4 oz., 50c. 



3190 FANTASY MIXTURE. A distinct de- 

 parture from the formal type of Zinnia. 

 Flowers are medium sized, double, with 

 half-curled, raylike petals. The one criti- 

 cism of Zinnias has been that they were 

 too stiff; this charming new variety has a 

 distinctly airy appearance and makes ex- 

 cellent cut flowers. A full range of color 

 is represented. Pkt., 15c. 



Zinnia Fantasy, Star Dust 



3191. Award of Merit, 1937 All-America Se- 

 lections. The first separate color selection 

 from the ever-popular Fantasy type. Plant 

 2y2 to 3 feet tall, literally covered with 

 rich, golden yellow blooms. Blooms in 

 about 7 weeks from sowing. Pkt., 25c. 



3153 Red Riding- Hood. Plants IV2 feet tall, 

 covered with small, double, scarlet flow- 

 ers. Pkt., 15c; 1/4 oz., 35c. 



3155 Picotee Mixed. A distinct type same 

 size and shape as the giant Zinnias, but 

 each petal is tipped with a contrasting 

 color. Pkt., 15c: hi oz., 75c. 



3154 SCABIOSAFI.ORA, Crested Zinnia. 

 Flowers look like someone had cut the 

 center out of a big double Zinnia and in- 

 serted a bloom of Scabiosa; a most pleas- 

 ing arrangement, centers are generally a 

 contrasting shade. Plants are strong and 

 vigorous, growing about 3 Vo feet tall. Pkt.. 

 25c; Vs oz., 75c. 



Zinnia, Improved Mexicana Haageana 



3152. In the mad rush for the large and giant-flowered strains of many of our flowers, 

 the smaller varieties have been neglected. This charming little Zinnia has always held 

 a very high place in our esteem. It is easily grown in almost any location, is practically 

 free from insects and blooms continuously until killed by frost. Best results are ob- 

 tained by planting seeds where they are to bloom and thinning out to 6 or 8 inches 

 apart. Sturdy plants, 9 to 10 inches high, with stems long enough for cutting. It is 

 excellent for either the rock garden or low beds or borders. Pkt., 15c; 2 pkts., 25c.
