Zinnias ah 



Zinnias are a great specialty with us and 

 we take particular care to see that our 

 stocks are the finest to be had. Our strains 

 are g-rown especiallv for us by the origina- 

 tor of the famous" Dahlia Flowered type. 

 That our care has not been in vain is proven 

 bv the hundreds of complimentary reports 

 w'e received on our Zinnias during the past 

 Summer and Fall. 



Zinnias are justly the most popular flower 

 of today. They are easy to grow, require 

 no staking and for brilliant color effect 

 cannot be equalled. Zinnias require only a 

 sunny spot in ordinary soil and an occa- 

 sional weeding to reward you with an 

 abundance of bloom from midsummer until 

 late Fall.

Wild Garden Mixture 



We have had so many calls for something 

 in flowers that could just be scattered and 

 raked in odd spaces to give a wild-flower- 

 garden effect that we have made up a tall 

 and dwarf mixture especially for this pur- 

 pose. These mixtures contain a large as- 

 sortment of the various annual flowers that 

 will grow and bloom with little or no care. 



If possible, the ground should be spaded, 

 the seed scattered and raked in; good re- 

 sults are. however, obtained by scratching 

 ^h-^ soil as deeply as possible with a steel 

 n ke and then scattering the seeds.
