Annual Flower Seeds 
Zinnia 
By far the most popular of all annu¬ 
als. Invaluable in the garden and long- 
lasting as a cut flower. The various 
types give every desired height, color, 
and flower size. Be sure to try some of 
each strain. Seed germinates very 
quickly in warm temperatures so they 
may be either sown in the hotbed in 
March, in the coldframe in April, or out¬ 
doors in early May. All types bloom 
very quickly and continue until frost. 
Be sure to pinch out the center of each 
plant when they are 5 to G in. high to 
encourage sturdy branching plants. 
Giant Dahlia-flowered Zinnias. 
Very large flowers on heavily 
branching plants. Although the 
flowers grow very large, they retain 
their grace because each petal 
curves toward the center, giving 
the flower a light appearance. This 
strain is a consistent prize winner.
