NOVELTIES and SPECIALTIES for 1935 
ZINNIA, FANTASY MIXTURE 
GRAND NEW ZINNIAS 
New Fantasy Mixture (AAS). New Zinnias are always welcomed by home growers, es¬ 
pecially in this region where Zinnias can be grown to perfection. While the giant- 
flowered types are still popular, the trend of late years has been toward the smaller 
flowered, more graceful strains. This new Fantasy mixture meets this demand 
in all details; the rounded flowers are composed 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 demand for a mass of color, yet small enough 
to lend themselves gracefully to flower arrangement. The color range includes 
the brightest shades of red and orange, as well as the popular pastel pinks and 
creams ...Pkt. 25c 
Scabious Flowered Mixtures (CPS). Plants 2 to 2^ feet high, bearing numerous 
medium sized flowers, remarkably resembling the annual Scabiosa. The color range 
includes crimson, scarlet, orange, yellow, pink and white.Pkt. 25c 
VERBENA BEAUTY OF OXFORD HYBRIDS (CPS) 
Of all the new and old Verbenas displayed in the gardens at A Century of Progress 
this enormous flowered type was the outstanding attraction. The individual flowers 
are the largest ever produced in this family, often measuring 1 inch in diameter, and 
come in solid colors ranging from clear, soft pinks to glowing crimson. The flower 
heads are borne in more of an upright manner than those of most other varieties and 
types .Pkt. 25c 
LILLIPUT CELOSIAS (CPS) 
Gardeners have long waited for these brilliant dwarf plumed Celosias. The 
pyramidal flower heads, rising only about 8 inches above the ground, fairly glow in 
the sunshine, and even take on a brighter appearance under artificial lighting. The 
plants are very compact, and bloom profusely from August until frost.
