234 to 3 ft. high; mammoth 
flowers 4 to 6 in. across and 234 
to 3 in. deep and so closely 
resembling decorative Dahlias

it is difficult to distinguish one 
from the other. This new type 
is also valuable for growing 
under glass for cutting.

Giant Dahlia- 
flowered Zinnias 
159a. FANTASY ZINNIA, STAR DUST. 
Star Dust will be welcomed with enthusiasm- 
It has the same shaggy-petaled, medium sized 
flower as the mixture—a delicate, graceful 
bloom. The color is a rich deep golden yellow, 
one of the vibrant shades closely associated 
with Zinnias, while the very free flowering, 
234 to 3 ft. plants are early blooming, coming 
into flower about 45 to 50 days from the time 
of planting. Pkt. 20c., 34 oz. 40c., 34 oz. 75c. 
160. ZINNIA FANTASY, NEW CHRYS¬ 
ANTHEMUM-FLOWERED. The outstand¬ 
ing Zinnia novelty of 1935. The strikingly 
attractive and beautiful flowers are 3 in. in 
diameter, in the brilliant colors of the im¬ 
proved, large flowering sorts and there are 
newer and unusual pastel shades. The flow¬ 
ers are borne on long, strong stems covering 
the well rounded, bushy plants with color. 
The flowers keep well when cut. Picking the 
blooms freely causes the plants to branch 
and increases the production of flowers. 
Those forming at an angle are held in 
that position without drooping. The 
plants are quite free from insects and 
disease. They grow where any gar¬ 
den plant can be grown, doing best in 
full sun, but thrive also in partial 
shade. Does well under glass for cut 
flowers. Pkt. 15c., 34 oz. 30c., 
34 oz. 50c. 
160a. ZINNIA, SCABIOSA- 
FLOWERING (1932 Novelty). This 
new Zinnia is entirely different to all 
other Zinnias. The plant reaches a 
height of 40 in. and flowers profusely. 
Its outstanding feature consists in 
the formation of the flower forming 
an outer ring of long petals, whereas 
the center shows many small flowers 
which at first sight have a great like¬ 
ness with the Scabiosa. Mixed 
colors. Pkt. 15c. 
M.-S. CALIFORNIA GIANT ZINNIAS
