ZINNIAS • Youth and Old Age 
Few flowers provide a more gorgeous display with less care or attention; all they require is a sunny spot to cause them to grow and bloom 
vigorously from early summer until frost. The seed may be sown in the garden any time during April or May and the plants thinned or trans¬ 
planted to stand 8 to 18 inches apart, according to variety. The largest specimen blooms are produced on plants that are grown on a mellow, 
moderately rich soil and given ample room to develop.
