Our Novelty Zinnias are delightfully different 
MichelPs Distinctive Zinnias 
We claim perfection in form, size and color for our strain of Zinnias, as those who grow them will attest. 
Zinnia, Scabious-flowered, Autumn Tints 
Fantasy or Chrysanthemum-flowered Varieties 
STAR DUST. 1937 Novelty. All-America winner. This informal Star 
Dust Zinnia will be welcomed with enthusiasm. It has the same 
shaggy-petaled, medium-sized flowers as the mixture, but the color is a 
rich, deep golden yellow. Plants grow 2 to 3 feet high. Free flower¬ 
ing and an early bloomer. This variety will come true from seed. 
Trade pkt. 50c.; S2.50 per oz. 
MIXED COLORS (Bodger). Novelty. The rounded flowers are com¬ 
posed of a mass of shaggy, ray-like petals which give a delicate and 
refined appearance to the medium-sized, double flowers. The color- 
range includes the brightest of reds and oranges as well as the popular 
pastel pinks and creams. Trade pkt. 30c.; $1.50 per oz. 
Novelty Zinnia for 1937 
SCABIOUS-FLOWERED, AUTUMN TINTS, MIXED. This new 
strain, which has been named Autumn Tints, is perfect in form of 
flower and comes true. The real beauty, however, is in the lovely 
coloring of the flowers, which range through all the gorgeous autumn 
tints and include orange, bronze, russet, dull red, carmine-red and 
intermediate shades. Fine for cut-flowers, having long stems and 
splendid keeping qualities. Trade pkt. 50c.; $2.50 per oz. 
Desert Gold • Novelty 
A large-flowering type in shades of yellow and gold, each petal over¬ 
laid at the base with a deeper color, giving a charming bicolor combi¬ 
nation. Trade pkt. 30c.; $1.50 per oz. 
California Giants 
These are larger than the Giant Robusta and are a cross between 
them and the Dahlia-flowered. This is 
an excellent, long- 
stemmed type 
suitable for cutting for florists.
