A very charming, very new, and very useful 
form of Miniature-flowered Zinnia producing 
innumerable, deep golden orange, single flow¬ 
ers with a delicate light yellow stripe in the 
midst of each petal. Slender, dark green 
foliage completely clothes the compact, 
branching plants that are never out of bloom.
