LILLIPUT ZINNIA—Pastel Shades 
See picture in natural colors on back cover 
Despite the great variety of new types of 
Zinnias the Lilliput or Pompon has had no 
difficulty in maintaining its popularity. Flow¬ 
ers are particularly fine for cutting for bou¬ 
quets because of their neat compact habit and 
of their small size, stems are long and 
straight for cutting. These new mixtures of 
Lilliput Zinnias combine the soft lovely shades 
of apricot, creamy yellow, shell pink, delicate 
salmon, light rose, and orchid which are the 
prime favorites in colors with florists and cut 
flower growers. Plants are 12 to 15 inches 
high and are early blooming. Pkt., 25c; % oz., 
$ 1.00 
395—NEW ZINNIA 
LINEARIS 
Seo picture on back cover 
This dwarf variety is the most unusual and 
interesting of the types of Zinnias. Flowers are 
single and of a lovely shade of color, orange 
with stripes through each petal, the center 
is dark brown. Blooms extremely early, com¬ 
mences to flower when plants are about 6 
inches tall and continues throughout the en¬ 
tire season until frost. It never becomes untidy 
looking as the dozens of new flowers prevent 
the sight of the faded flowers. Plants average 
10 inches high and if not crowded will spread 
to as much as 2 feet by the end of the season. 
The stems are of such length that it is not out¬ 
standing as a cut flower yet you will find 
that it will work well in the miniature bou¬ 
quets that you know are so popular. Pkt., 25c; 
Mi oz., $ 1 . 00 .

Dahlia Flowered 
ZINNIAS-DAHLIA MIXED (A) 
In 1936 Mr. Charles Kranz of 
Kranz Greenhouse exhibited at the 
Great Falls Flower Show an im¬ 
mense bouquet of Dahlia flow¬ 
ered Zinnias which he grew. There 
splendidly formed blossoms were 
produced on stems from 3V4 to 5 
feet tall and could be displayed 
only by placing entire bouquet in 
a large washtub. Flowers of this 
variety are preferred by some to 
the California Giants, because 
they appear more double and do 
not seem to have as many flat 
blossoms.
