ZINNIAS 
The Zinnia is to-day one of our most popular 
annuals, and though this has long been a favor¬ 
ite the newer gigantic flowered types, in the 
most brilliant and really gorgeous colors, com¬ 
pletely supersede the Zinnia of a few years 
back, and has brought this valuable flower con¬ 
spicuously to the front ranks. 
BRAINARD’S MONSTER ZINNIA 
In recommending to our customers this enor¬ 
mous flowered Zinnia which is really a mutation 
from our Dahlia flowered type, we feel we are 
offering the last word in large flowered Zinnias. 
The flowers are slightly flatter than those of the 
Giant type, and develop a perfectly formed 
flower with less stiffness than is noticeable in 
ordinary Zinnias, and we believe there is no 
better for cut flower and general use. We offer 
them in 8 separate colors.
