ZINNIA, hha. These are among the most 
important of all annuals. The seeds start readily 
and the plants quickly come into bloom and in¬ 
crease in size; are free-blooming throughout the 
season. The flowers are full-double, of many rich 
colors, and some distinctly and beautifully varie¬ 
gated. The plants of the various races grow from 
one to three feet high, branch freely, and are glo¬ 
rious in beds or borders. They are not troubled 
by insects or diseases, and are always satisfactory 
in growth and bloom. 
Achievement, 3ft. This is different from all other 
Zinnias owing to the shape of its petals, which 
are tubular at the base, and expand in a Cactus¬ 
like form toward the tip; splendid mixed colors. 
Bodger's Giant Dahlia-flowd, 3ft. Years ago Mr. 
John Bodger of California began to improve the 
Zinnias, and since his death his sons have contin¬ 
ued the improvements, resulting in a strain that 
produces enormous Dahlia-like firs of the most 
varied and beautiful colors. I offer only seeds 
grown by Bodger which may be depended upon 
to give the very best results when planted.
