ZINNIAS Liefgreen’s Giant Showy Zinnias ™ e is 
sibly more at home in the warmer sections of Arizona than any other flower. 
It is sun-loving, very easy to grow and a favorite in thousands of Arizona 
gardens. We wish to stress the fact that our Zinnias, are absolutely the- 
best strains in existence. The Zinnia is strictly a hot weather plant and 
should not be planted until March. Plants may be continued throughout 
the Summer. 
C'iJLTUEJv—Plant after all danger of frost is over. The seed should 
be planted about one-half inch deep and the seed bed covered with a mulch 
of light barnyard fertilizer or grass to conserve the top moisture. Plant 
in rich soil in rows at least three feet apart and thin out plants so they 
are about 12 inches apart. Never plant Zinnias in the shade, as they de¬ 
light in the full sunshine. Keep the rows free and clean from Bermuda 
Grass and weeds and cultivate and irrigate often. To avoid mildew, dust 
the ground around the plants with ground sulphur as soon as the buds ap¬ 
pear. If you follow these instructions wo know your efforts will be re¬ 
warded. 
ZINNIA — Liefgreen’s Giant Dahlia Flowered 
The DAHLIA FLOWERED ZINNIA is the most popular of all the Zinnia 
types grown. The large size, beautiful petals, extra, ordinary colors and 
good keeping qualities have made them popular with all who grow them. 
They resemble a Dahlia in appearance and when in full bloom often measure 
five and six inches in diameter. The variations in the colors are wonderful 
and we cannot recommend them too highly. We list them in the following 
colors. 
EXQUISITE —One of the most pleasing shades. Color a light Rose, 
with deeper Rose center. 
ILLUMINATION —A deep soft rose. Very beautiful. 
CRIMSON MONARCH —By far the largest and best of the red shades. 
Flowers often eight inches in diameter. Plants very vigorous. 
ORIOLE —We consider this the 
most beautiful of its class. It is an im¬ 
mense Orange and gold bicolor, 
changing slightly as it ages. 
CANARY BIRD —Delicate prim¬ 
rose—very large and holds its color 
well. 
DREAM —A fine, deep Laven¬ 
der, turning to Purple (Mallow Pur¬ 
ple), a new, desirable shade in Zin¬ 
nias.
