HOLMES’ Flower Seeds of Real Merit 
Fantasy Zinnias 
Chrysanthemum-Flowered. Finest Mixed 
Award of Merit All-America 
2381. Fantasy is the most fascinating 
Zinnia introduction in many years. The 
ragged-appearing flowers are interesting and 
graceful and quite unlike the stiff, formal 
Zinnias of our grandmothers’ gardens. The 
flowers are of medium size, composed of a 
mass of shaggy petals, large enough to give 
a splash of color, but also small enough for 
graceful arrangement in bouquets. The 
color ranges from the brightest shades of 
red, yellow, and orange to the soft pastel 
pinks and cream. This is undoubtedly the 
Zinnia sensation. Pkt., 15c; Vs oz., 45c. 
(See page 59 for other Zinnias).

Early Klondyke 
Cosmos, Orange Flare 
Gold Medal Winner, All-America 
1471. This is one of the most dis' 
cussed and admired flowers on the mar' 
ket today. The color is the same vivid 
orange of the ordinary Klondyke, but 
the foliage is much less abundant, giving 
a plant which is a mass of color. The 
stems are long and wiry, excellent for 
cutting. Orange Flare will be in flower 
less than four months after the time it 
is planted. Pkt., 15c; % oz., 50c. 
Yellow Supreme

carnationdike flowers. Similar to Guinea 
Gold in formation. Flowers are large, 4 
to 4J/2 inches across, rich creamy yellow in color, and freely borne quite early in the

jectionable to many people. 2/i 
feet tall. Pkt., 15c; % oz., 30c.
