Breck’s California Giants 
Breck’s Zinnias 
No garden of annual flowers could get along with¬ 
out a bed of Zinnias. The big, bold plants bear 
blooms of many bright colors, long lasting and freely 
produced. They are as easy to grow as anything, 
affording never-ending pleasure from the time they 
come into bloom until frost. Like all other popular 
flowers, many distinct types have been developed, 
some bearing flowers of enormous size and others 
which are jewel-like miniatures of their larger 
brothers and sisters. 
Until the advent of the Dahlia-flowered types, the 
Giants listed below were the largest and showiest. 
Now, of course, the Dahlia-flowered are the royalty 
of the race in size of bloom, stature, and in glorious 
colors. No garden of annual flowers is complete 
without Zinnias. The many types fit every garden 
need, producing massive color effects or dainty 
miniature borders according to the type selected.

71841 COLLECTION, 6 varieties for 50c. 
The plants of this group reach a height of 3 to 4 feet, with long, strong 
stems which are particularly adapted for cutting. Flowers are very large 
and well formed, with a smooth-topped, graceful appearance, the petals 
lying flat upon each other. The superior luster which the flowers have is 
probably due to a higher degree of light reflection from the symmetrically 
placed petals. Blooming in about 60 days from planting-time, Breck’s 
California Giants are outstanding garden subjects.
