ZINNIA DAHLIA FLOWERED OLD ROSE 
ZINNIAS 
# 
Culture A, B or C 
This is one of the most satisfactory garden flowers ever grown in the Middle 
West, giving such an abundance of showy, brilliantly colored blooms, desirable either 
in the border or for cutting. They withstand heat and drouth so well that it is no 
wonder that they are so popular. Of recent years Zinnias have been greatly improved 
upon, until now flowers may be had measuring as much as 6 and 7 inches in diameter, 
and in the brightest of colors. All the Zinnias succeed best in the full sun and in a 
light, rich soil.
