EMMA V. WHITE’S ZINNIAS 
For many years my name has been closely associated with fine Zinnias, and the development 
of this popular flower has been a source of great pleasure and satisfaction to me. 1 list, for 
your 1935 garden the best of the New Giant Mammoth, Dahlia Flowered, and five colors of the 
Liliput or Baby Zinnias. Those of you who have planted Red Riding Hood the past few years 
need no introduction to this charming class of Zinnias. 
One of my customers in Minnesota when asked what one flower she would grow if compelled 
to give up all others, quickly responded “Zinnias.” Her Zinnia garden of Dahlia Flowered, Red 
Riding Hood, Rosebud and other varieties was one of the grandest sights I ever hope to gee. 
With small spruce and White Pine for a background, to set off the color, ranging from deepest 
crimson to the beautiful lighter shades, no display of flowers, which 1 have ever seen, could be 
more gorgeous. 
To get the most beauty and enjoyment from your Zinnias^—I would like to suggest that you 
try this—order only named varieties and plant in blocks of solid colors. The effect will then do 
justice to your garden and the display will be the talk of the town. Most seed catalogs listed the 
Dahlia Flower Zinnia at from 20c to 35c per packet last season, and my price was 20c. In keeping 
with my experiment for this year, described on page 1, I am offering these at equivalent of 10c per 
packet. I am doing this to enable you to have a full Zinnia section this season, and I can not offer 
-this another year, unless I sell twice as many packets to you as last year. Here is the chance you 
have always wanted and waited for. Think of being able to buy this gorgeous flower at no more per 
packet than you pay for the ordinary old fashioned Zinnias. I expect that your response to this 
offer will be overwhelming, and as theer is always the possibility of running out of seed, please 
get your order in early. 
I have raised some of the loveliest Canterbury Bells from your seed this year.

I am one of the exhibitors at the flower show here. Your Asters and Zinnias were much 
commented on. MRS. N. P. THAYER, Worcester, Mass. •
