Dahlia Flowered Zinnias 
This wonderful flower creates a sensation wherever it is grown and it has probably gained 
popularity more quickly than any other improved garden flower offered in recent years. 
The large size, fullness of petals, extraordinary color range, and good keeping qualities have 
all contributed to its popularity. The flowers resemble in appearance the Decorative Dahlia 
and is called the Dahlia Flowered Zinnia for this reason. When in full bloom they often 
measure five to six inches in diameter. 
Canary Bird—A delicate shade of primrose—very 
large and holds its color well until out of bloom. Per 
pkt. 10c. 
Crimson Monarch—By far the largest and best of 
the red shades. Flowers often 8 inches in diameter. 
Plants very vigorous. A marvelous production of ex¬ 
traordinary merit. Per pkt. 10c. 
Dream—A fine deep lavender, turning to purple 
(Mallow Purple), a new, desirable shade in Zinnias. 
Per pkt. 10c. 
Exquisite—By far the most pleasing of our collec¬ 
tion. Truly DAHLIA flowered as regards form and 
size. Color light rose with center a deep rose. (Tyrian 
Rose.) Per pkt. 10c. 
Golden Dawn (New)—A beautiful golden yellow of 
immense size and good form. Very attractive. Pkt. 10c. 
Golden State—A very rich orange yellow (Cadmium). 
Yellow in the bud, turning to an attractive orange 
when in full bloom. Per pkt. 10c. 
Illumination—Similar to Exquisite, but a striking 
self color of deep rose. (Tyrian Rose.) Per pkt. 10c 
Lemon Beauty—This is next to Crimson Monarch in 
size and form. It may be described as a golden yellow 
on brown. Decidedly a pastel shade, and should be in 
every collection. Pkt. 10c. 
Meteor—A rich, glowing deep red (Spinel Red), and 
the darkest of all the red shades. Fine form, with 
good depth of petal. Very large and more floriferous 
than other reds. Per pkt. 10c. 
Oriole—We consider this the most beautiful of its 
class. It is an immense orange and gold bicolor, 
changing slightly as it ages, but at all times worthy of 
the beautiful bird for which it is named. Pkt. 10c. 
Old Rose—This is adequately described by its name, 
as it is of the real Old Rose Shade; it is large, and 
for charm and beauty we consider it ranks next to 
Exquisite. Per pkt. 10c. 
Polar Bear—A very large pure white, the best white 
yet seen in Zinnias. True Dahlia form. Per pkt. 10c. 
Purple Prince—A fine, deep purple (Rhodanthe Pur¬ 
ple) large and well-formed. Pkt. 10c. 
Scarlet Flame—A large, beautiful, bright scarlet, 
with a delightful blending of orange throughout the 
petal. This is not a bicolor. Per pkt. 10c. 
Youth (New)—A beautiful soft rose self; valuable 
for forcing and a good shipper, having better lasting 
qualities than any other variety we grow. Pkt. 10c. 
Butzer’s Special Mixture—A well blended mixture, 
containing all the above novelties. Per pkt. 10c; 3 for 
25c. 
DWARF DOUBLE ZINNIAS—Large Flowering 
THE BEST BEDDING VARIETY

large perfect flowers. Salmon Rose, a pleasing shade. 
Bright Scarlet, very rich. Snowball, pure white.
