of densely double flowers measuring ffom 4 to 6 inches in diameter. 



Giant Zinnias are one of the best" plants for beds, borders and cutting.

Zinnia Novelties 



4652 Picotee Giant Double. This variety is one of a remarkable new and 

 distinct class of Zinnias, producing double flowers, measuring from 4 

 to 6 inches in diameter, in the following colors: orange, yellow, flesh 

 and pink, each petal being tipped with a dark chocolate or maroon shade, 

 giving the flowers a very pleasing appearance, resembling a Picotee 

 Carnation. Giant Double Picotee is very desirable for bedding or for 

 cutting.

4654 Picotee, Golden Pheasant. A variety of the above, having flowers of a 

 deep orange with maroon tips Pkt. 2.3c. 



4656 Achievement Giant Double Quilled- {Zinnia Elegans Rohusta Grandi- 

 ]lora.) This is distinct from all othiT Zinnias hitherto raised by the shape 

 of its petals, which are partially tubular at the base and expand in a 

 cactus-like form toward the tip, thereby displaying a rich variety of color, 

 mostly of the warmer shades, such as pale rose, deep rose, salmon, lilac, 

 scarlet and coppery golden yellow, the reverse side the petals are of a Ulac 

 tint, varying from light to dark, and by their singular contour they pro- 

 duce in the flower a rare and beautiful combination of color never before 

 seen among Zinnias 



The plant is a very free and strong p-rower, producing an abundance of 

 very double flowers on stalks borne well clear of the foliage. The in- 

 vidual blooms often attain a diameter of 5 or 6 inches, and besides its 

 highly decorative effect in the garden, this new Zinnia can be strongly 

 recommended as a cut flower.

4658 Dahlia-Flowered Giant Double. These flowers have a very m.arked 

 distinction from the ordinary giant-flowering class, being of a true Dahlia- 

 flowering t\'pe, and when cut from the plant and placed by Dahlias it is 

 difficult to distinguish one from the other. Of easy cvilture, very large 

 flowers, free bloomers; should be a close rival to the Dahlia.

These indispensable garden annuals are now greatly improved. The plants 

 form handsome, compact bushes 2 feet in height, with large, perfectly formed 

 double flowers.
