Zinnia Fantasy Rosalie (Bodger) 
OST INTERESTING of the 
newer Zinnia develop¬ 
ments, the Fantasy type main¬ 
tains its place as a reigning 
favorite among Zinnia enthusi¬ 
asts. Since we first started work¬ 
ing on this type, we have been 
carrying on the development of 
separate colors. A few years 
ago we introduced the golden 
yellow variety Star Dust and this 
season we are presenting three 
additional colors, among which 
we consider Rosalie particularly 
fine. The color is a bright, in¬ 
tense rose, equally lovely in the 
garden or when cut. Plants are 
neat in habit, strong growing 
and very free flowering, about 
21/2 to 3 feet in height. The deli¬ 
cate informal flowers, composed 
of a mass of shaggy, ray-like petals are quite distinct from the stiff, formal 
Zinnias to which we are accustomed. For flower arrangement the type is 
superbly adapted to the ordinary home and keeping qualities are excellent.

Zinnia Fantasy White Light (Bodger) 
Recommended \ALLAMtRICAl g l SELKTIONS/ 1938 
T HE THIRD of our Fantasy Zinnias to receive recognition in the All-America 
Selections, White Light is a very worthy successor to Star Dust and the Mix¬ 
ture, both of which were granted Awards of Merit at the time of their introduc¬ 
tion. As near to a pure white as any Zinnia yet developed, White Light is an 
excellent addition to the group of white flowers so much in demand by the 
florist trade. Practically 100% true to color, the medium-sized, shaggy petaled, 
informal flowers are lovely in flower arrangements and while not exactly 
showy in the garden, lend a soft note of restfulness. The free blooming plants 
are 2!% to 3 feet in height, with stems of good length for cutting, and will be 
in flower 45 to 50 days after seed is planted. Any garden will be enriched by 
the addition of these three new Fantasy Zinnias, White Light, Rosalie and 
Orange Lady.
