CALIFORNIA GIANT ZINNIAS 
These Zinnias are a decided improvement on the old 
Giant Double, throwing vigorous laterals from which the 
best flowers usually come. When the flowers are half 
grown they make a useful Florists’ cut-flower and when 
in full bloom they reach enormous size but their flatness 
gives them a more graceful appearance than the Giant 
Double which are described as conical in form.

LILLIPUT IMPROVED OR POM PON 
Pom Pon Zinnias have deservedly become extremely 
popular in recent times. The compact bushes grow two 
feet in height and are profusely covered by dainty double 
flowers on long stems. Makes a wonderful cut flower and 
compares favorably with the Pom Pon Dahlia for sheer 
dazzling effect when set in large bowls.

HAAGEANA (Mexican Hybrids) Dou¬ 
ble Mixed. The small flowered Mexi¬ 
can Zinnias have a charm all their 
own. The smaller flowers lend them¬ 
selves to bedding and make a brilliant 
display and yet have stems long enough 
to make fine bouquets for small vases 
and bowls. The mixture contains 
many attractive colors and color com¬ 
binations. Pkt. 10c. 
CROWN O’ GOLD. This aristocrat among Zinnias retains 
its place as an outstanding novelty. Each petal of the 
flower is overlaid with a deep golden yellow at the base, 
while carrying out the individual flower color at the tip. 
Mixture, includes old rose, cream, yellow, carmine red, 
pink. Pkt. 25c. 
GIANT DAHLIA FLOWERED. The flowers are sensa¬ 
tional, combining as they do, large size, fullness of petals, 
wonderful range of color and good 
keeping qualities. They resemble in 
appearance the Decorative Dahlia. 
When in full bloom they often meas¬ 
ure 5 to 6 inches in diameter. This 
wonderful strain originated and is 
grown in California and we cannot 
recommend it too highly to our friends. 
Exquisite. Beautiful light rose with 
deeper rose center. Pkt. 15c. 
FANTASY MIXED (See Novelty Page.) 
DESERT GOLD (New). Desert Gold comprises the light 
and deeper hues of gold found in the Crown o’ Gold 
Mixture. The plants are from two and a half to three 
feet in height, bearing a generous quantity of the large 
well formed flowers which are equally effective in day¬ 
light or under artificial lights. Those who appreciate the 
finest in Zinnias will welcome Desert Gold. Pkt. 25c.
