The World's Best Z 



Golden State 



Dream 



We believe that we offer on this page the 

 finest assortment of Zinnias to be had any- 

 where. If you have only been growing one 

 type of Zinnias there is a treat in store for 

 you. From the charming little Mexicana va- 

 riety, charming in Rock Gardens, to the 

 Giants of California, each has a place of its 

 own in the garden and all make the finest of 

 cut flowers. 



Cultural Note: While Zinnias are quite a 

 hardy plant and very easy to grow, it must 

 be remembered that they are natives of 

 Mexico and like hot weather and full sun- 

 shine. Do not plant too early as when the 

 young plants are subjected to frosts or a 

 ^period of cold weather, they receive a check 

 which often causes mis-shapen flowers and 

 also causes extreme variations in color.
