for borders and for cut flowers, they furnish a wealth of blooms from early summer till late in the fall.

Far»f»«v MiYfnr** 1935 A - A - s - Award 
r dnidsy mixture of Merit. Introduced 
in 1935 under the name of Fantasy. 
While the giant-flowered varieties are very popu¬ 
lar, the trend is toward the smaller and more 
graceful types. Fantasy has rounded flowers, com¬ 
posed of a mass of shaggy ray-like petals, which 
give a delicate and refined appearance to the 
medium sized double flowers, large enough to satisfy 
the desire for mass of color, yet small enough to 
lend themselves gracefully to flower arrangement. 
The color range includes the brightest shades of 
reds and orange, as well as the pastel pings and 
cream. 
Fantasy is of the Curled and Crested type, dis¬ 
tinctly different from any other Zinnias. Packet, 
25c; Vs Oz. 50c. Oz. $3.00.
