SCHLINC'S GIANT DOUBLE ZINNIAS 
Zinnias require little attention, and will grow well almost anywhere. For 
greater perfection of flowers, seed should be sown in a hotbed or coldfranie in 
March, and the plants set out in May, 2 feet apart each way. They grow 
bushy, and will completely cover the ground by early summer. They begin to 
flower in June, and bloom continuously until killed by frost. The fact that the 
flower remains so long perfect has given the plant its common name, Youth- 
and-Old-Age. Our strains of Giant Zinnias are truly magnificent. The blooms
