 LARGE-FLOWERING ZINNIA 



Zinnias in this section belong to the 

 half dwarf class, having reference to size 

 of plants, not to blossoms, as all are 

 large flowering; more used for bedding 

 than any other class. All Zinnias are of 

 rank growth, however, and one cannot get 

 largest flowers from crowded plants. 1* 

 to 2 feet. Pkt., 60 seeds. 



Burnt Orange. Bronze art shades, for 

 which there is now quite a rage. 



Jacqueminot. A dark velvety, geranium 

 red, rivaling the G-eranium for bedding. 



Pink. Salmon-rose and flesh-pink. 



Snowball. A very double white. 



Yellow. Lovely canary and other yel- 

 lows. 



Improved Dwarf Mixed. The above and 

 other named varieties mixed, all giant 

 flowering. A splendid mixture. 



NEW MAMMOTH ZINNIA

 gigantic size and perfect form, in the 

 most brilliant and best Zinnia colors 

 Should be 18 to 24 inches apart. Height, 

 2i to 3 ft. Pkt., 30 seeds. 



MEXICAN ZINNIA 



Flowers are single, semi-double and double 

 size of a large daisy, in orange and bronzy 

 yellow shades, resembling Dwarf Marigold 

 Very artistic for cutting and highly effective 

 as an edging plant. 1 ft. Pkt., 50 seeds. 

 RED RIDING HOOD ZINNIA

 with small, intensely scarlet, very double 

 flowers; highly effective for bedding. 1 ft
