BahLa-Flowered Zinnia 
tZINNIAS 
Hardy annual. We recommend Zinnias for beds, borders 
and summer hedges, where they will bloom quite freely, but 
are incomparably bright during the month of August. Sow 
seed in the open ground early in spring or start in hotbed or 
window and transplant when ground is suitably warmed. 
DAHLIA-FLOWERED 
They very closely resemble the double decorative type Dah¬ 
lias in foim and in their robust growth. Plants get up to 
3 feet in height, with perfect flowers often 6 inches wide by 
3 and 4 inches in depth. These range widely as to color, even 
introducing depths and tones heretofore unknown in Zinnias.
