Verbena Hybrida Grandiflora 



Zinnias 



One of the most popular annuals for beds, mixed borders and cutting purposes. The zinnia blooms constantly from July 

 until frost and does well in most any soil. To secure the largest flowers and a profusion of bloom, the plants must be given 

 plenty of room for full development and an abundance of plant food. 



Giant Dahlia Flowered Zinnia 



The latest development in Zinnias. It took seven years of 

 painstaking care and selection to produce this type of Zinnia, 

 but it is now recognized the world over as being the largest 

 and most beautiful Zinnia. The Dahlia Flowered Zinnia is a 

 good forcer and money maker for florists. The plants are 

 sturdy and the flowers, often measuring 6 inches in diameter 

 and 4 inches in depth, closely resemble the Show Dahlia.

Mixture 



This is a mixture which will give great pleasure to all who 

 try it for waste corners and patches, and with a little or, no 

 care will procure a pleasing effect in places that would other- 

 wise be nothing but a collection of unsightly weeds. T'his mix- 

 ture is ideal for the Children's Garden. Why not put aside a 

 little patch of ground for every one of your children? Show 

 them how to spade and rake the bed smoothly, then early in 

 May sow the seeds broadcast over the bed, and cover about 

 one-half inch with fine sifted soil. Make the children a present 

 of a package of seed and a watering pot and teach them to 

 water when necessary. Do not thin out the plants and they 

 will have a grand display of flowers the entire summer. If you 

 liave no children, try a patch yourself. Pkt. 10c. Oz. 30c.
