Russell - Heckle’s Zinnias 
Few garden annuals are more thoroughly satisfactory than Zinnias, particularly in recent years. Greatly improved, 
larger flowering and more brilliantly colored strains have been developed. Plant early in rows 1% to 2 feet apart and 
cover seeds about % inch deep, or start indoors and transplant outside when the ground is warm. Zinnias can be sown as 
late as July and they will produce fine large flowers in the fall. 
California Giant Zinnias 
The great advantage of this magnificent type is its enor¬ 
mous flat double flowers, sometimes measuring 7 inches in 
diameter, getting away from the conical shape and stiffness 
that has been the only objection to Zinnias in the past. 
They are twice the size of ordinary Giants, prolific bloomers, 
have great color range and make good cut flowers from 
early bud to late bloom. In separate colors.
