DAHLIA FLOWERED ZINNIA 
ZINNIA FANTASY 
VERBENA 
One of the most popular garden annuals for beds and 
massing and for a gorgeous display during the Summer 
months cannot be excelled, commencing to flower in July 
and continuing until frost. 
Verbena Hybrida Grandiflora Crimson Glow. In all the rather 
long list of Hybrida Grandiflora Verbena varieties there has 
been none in a crimson shade until Crimson Glow was intro¬ 
duced. The flowers are pure, self-colored, glowing crimson, 
wholly without even a small light eye. The individual florets 
are of good size, although as is characteristic of the reds in 
Verbena, they are not as large as some other colors, such as 
pink and lavender. Crimson Glow is one of the most vivid 
Verbena colors, and will occupy a prominent place in next 
season’s gardens. Pkt. 25c.

Fantasy. Award of Merit, All-America Selections, 1935. The 
most distinctive new Zinnia. As different from the ordinary 
formal Zinnia as one could imagine, the delicate, lacy petaled 
flowers lend an air of friendly informality to the garden or 
flower arrangement. The rounded, medium-sized shaggy flow¬ 
ers are borne profusely on 2% to 3-foot plants, in a wide and 
varied color range which includes the brightest shades of red, 
yellow and orange, as well as the popular pastel pinks and 
cream. Finest Mixed, pkt. 15c.

While the color range includes all popular shades, it is par¬ 
ticularly rich in shades of crimson, scarlet, orange, yellow 
and pink. Mixed colors, pkt. 15c.

tive colors and color combinations.
