Payne's 
New Giant 
Picotee Zinnia 
The Picotee Zinnia is a new and 
unique class. The flowers are like 
those of the Giant Zinnia but the 
petals are tipped with a different 
color; flesh pink tipped with choco- 
late brown is one of the most 
frequent types, others are orange, 
lemon yellow, cerise, various shades 
of pink and crimson all with well 
defined gold or brown picotee 
markings. 'Pkt. 25c. 
New Dahlia 
Flowered 
Zinnia 
(See front cover of catalogue) 
A new and distinct race of Zinnia 
which will no doubt become very 
popular. The plants are of sturdy 
growth forming bushy plants 2 to 3 
feet high, producing quantities of 
immense double flowers on long 
stems. The blossoms are the larg- 
est of any Zinnia ever grown and 
when fully developed often meas- 
ure 4 inches in depth and 6 inches 
in diameter. The petals are larger 
and broader than in the ordinary 
giant zinnia and give the flower a 
resemblance to a show dahlia. In 
the color of the flowers there is a 
wonderful range, including golden 
yellow, burnt orange, old rose, ce- 
rise, mauve, crushed strawberry, 
terra cotta, rose pink, Tyrian rose 
and other charming shades. Pkt

New Giant Double Quilled Zinnia, 
Achievement 
In this Zinnia we have quite a new departure in this 
popular class of flowers. It is quite distinct from all 
other varieties ever raised. The petals are partially 
tubular or quilled, giving the flower somewhat the ap- 
pearance of a cactus dahlia and displaying a rich variety 
of colors mostly of the warmer shades, such as, salmon, 
old rose, deep rose, lilac, bronze and dark red tones. On 
the reverse side the petals are light or dark lilac, making 
a wonderful combination of colors. The plants are of 
strong, robust growth and produce an abundance of very 
large, double flowers often 5 inches in diameter, which 
last a long time when cut. Pkt., 25c. 
Payne's Giant Double Zinnia Special 
Mixture of Pastel Shades 
The Zinnia is one of the most desirable of our summer 
and fall flowers for cutting purposes. They last a long 
time in water and are very decorative. However, many 
of the colors are too dazzlingly bright, and though we 
may admire them in the garden, they are not suited to 
produce artistic effects in the house. On the other hand, 
many of the lighter shades are very delicate and desirable 
for decorative purposes. Of late years there has been a 
great demand for Zinnias in the pastel shades, and this 
season I am offering a very carefully made up mixture 
which will be found to include all the most delicate art 
tints. Pkt., 15c; % oz., 40c.
