Zinnia, Henderson's New Giant 



(Zinnia Elegans Robusta Plenissima) 



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." Zinnias are now very much in evidence in flower gardens 

 throughout the country, primarily because they will grow and 

 flourish under unfavorable conditions. Given a fair soil, they will 

 bloom continuously from July until frost. 



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

 myriads of densely double flowers measuring from 4 to 6 inches in 

 diameter. Giant Zinnias are one of the best plants for beds, borders 

 and cutting. (See illustration.)

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.

of a deep orange with maroon tips. (See illustration) Pkt. 25c.

 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. (See illustration.) Mixed Colors.
