ZINNIA 
With seed supplies cut off from the usual sources during the late war, the world turned to California 
to fill the gap. The result brought us, among other things, the modern Zinnia. Not only have they 
been greatly increased in size of flower but also in color range until we now have more than a dozen. 
Not only that, but new forms have been developed so that the Zinnia now ranks as one of the two or 
three most popular and widely sown flowers grown. That all these improvements have been made 
without sacrificing vigor and sturdiness of the plants is gratifying because there is hardly another 
plant that will flower so well under adverse conditions. The separate colors enable our friends to work 
out almost any color scheme in the garden, an art in garden-making that adds greatly to the pleasure 
of the effort.
