(illustrated in colors on opposite page) 



46S2 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 foUowing colors: orange, yellow, flesii_ 

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

 giving the flowers a very pleasing appearance, resembling a Picotee 

 Carnation. Mixed Colors Pkt. 25c. 



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

 deep orange with maroon tips Pkt. 25c. 



4656 Achievement Giant Double Quilled. {Zinnia ElegansRobusta Grandi- 

 flora.) This is distinct from all other Zinnias hitherto raiS:d 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. Mixed Colors Pkt. 25c. 



(4668 Dahlia-Flowered Giant Double. These flowers have a very marked dis- 

 tinction from the ordinary giant-fliowering class, being of a true Dahlia- 

 flowering type, and when cut from the plant and placed by Dahlias it 

 is difficult to distinguish one from the other. Of easy culture, very 

 large flowers, free bloomers. Mixed Colors Pkt. 25c.

 Zjli'Nl'Mil. NEW GIANT 



{Zinnia Elegans Roiusta Plenissima) 



(illustrated in colors on opposite page) 



These grand annuals are of the Giant or Mammoth-flowering type and 

 are in every way superior to the old-fashioned "Youth and Old Age." Zin- 

 nias are now very much in evidence in flower gardens throughout the country, 

 primarily because they will gtow and flourish under unfavorable conditions. 

 Given a fair soil, they will bloom continuously from July until frost. 



The plants grow from 2K to 3 feet high and are covered with myriasd 

 of densely double flowers measuring from 4 to 6 inches m diameter. Giant 

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

 average trusses measure 9 to 12 inches in circumference and the individual 

 florets on properly grown plants over 1 inch across — ^or larger than a 25c. sil-

 new colors and shades. For garden beds and massing these Verbenas are 

 unrivaled; flowers of the most brilliant colors produced continually from 

 l> spring until last in the autumn. (See Engraving)
