ZINNIAS (Youth and Old Age) 2i/ 2 '. 
The Zinnia is probably our most popular garden flower 
today. Its bold striking masses of bright color are unexcelled 
for cutting and recent cultural work has bred into them a 
larger size, wider color range, and more graceful habit than the 
old fashioned types. 
Sow Zinnias early and transplant when all danger of frost 
is over leaving 2Y feet between the plants of the giant sorts 
to allow room for full development.
