California Giants 1 Zinnias 
Dahlia Flowered Zinnia 
Haines California Giants Zinnias 
Fully as large as the Dahlia Flowered, they are of the true Zinnia type, 
flat without the conical center, being nearly a solid face with loosely placed 
petals. I have grown flowers fully 5 inches in diameter. Plants are of 
robust habit, attaining a height of about 3 feet, and should be given 18 
to 24 inches between each to allow for full de¬ 
velopment; they bear numerous semi-globular 
mostly very double flowers on long, strong stems, 
all of the largest size, making them of great value 
in large beds, borders, etc., grown under favorable 
conditions they remain in bloom from early sum¬ 
mer to late autumn. I offer the colors separately, 
as well as a splendid .mixture of many colors. 
LEMON QUEEN. This is of immense size, color 
light canary on _ the upper and cerise on the 
lower side. It is also unique inasmuch as it 
carries a pleasant odor. Pkt. 10c; Yb oz. 39c. 
ORANGE KING. This is a striking shade and can 
be compared favorably with the color of the 
Calendula from which it takes its name. Pkt.

PURITY. Like the Dahlia Flowered Polar Bear, 
this is a clear white. It has lost the greenish 
tint that has made white Zinnias unpopular in 
the past. Pkt. 10c; Yb oz. 39c. 
ROSE QUEEN. This flower opens first as bright 
rose with a deep rose red center and gradually 
develops into a warm deep rose when in full 
bloom. Pkt. 10c; Yb of.. 39c.

different and rare seeds be obtained for such a small cost. It is suitable for any 
bare or unsightly spots in the yard, to sow along fences, on embankments, etc. All 
the cultivation necessary is some thinning out where the plants are too crowded and

How to Transplant Annuals 
When the seedlings crowd each other it is time 
to transplant. Water soil about plants several 
hours before transplanting. Move the seedlings 
on a dull day, or if sun is shining, cover with 
newspaper or flower pot after replanting so that 
tops will not dry out. Shorten the tops and 
water well. 
Zinnia—Haines Giant 
Balloon Flowered 
Large Double Flowers of 
Unequalled Colors and Beauty 
An entirely new class of Zin¬ 
nias, giant in size, measuring 4 
to 5 inches across and perfectly 
double flowers, of richest, most 
varied colors and shades. Few 
flowers are more easily grown or 
bloom more abundantly through¬ 
out the season, and the wide range 
of color is no less remarkable 
than their unusual depth and rich¬ 
ness. Plants grow 3 feet high. 
There is much satisfaction in a 
bed of Zinnias with their twisted 
and recurved petaled flowers in 
many bright colors and when 
nearly every other flower has been 
killed by frost this plant is still 
in full bloom. Pkt. 10c; Yi oz.
