ZINNIA, TOM THUMB, MIXED COLORS 
The Tom Thumb Zinnias have an average plant height of about 8 inches. Each 
plant consists of a large number of slender branches which give to the plant a 
well rounded, bushy habit. These primary branches which arise from near the 
ground level ore relatively free from lateral branches ond are remarkably slen¬ 
der, so as to harmonize with the miniature flowers which hardly exceed an inch 
in diameter. The leaves also are small and in keeping with the slender stems. 
Each of the numerous stems bears a single, very double terminal flower. As 
they open, the rounded plants are a mass of color which persists through the 
summer and autumn. Tom Thumb Zinnias are as easily grown as other varieties 
and require no special treatment for the production of the miniature sized 
flowers. Especially adapted as border, bedding, edging and rock garden plants; 
stems are long enough for cutting; lovely in low bowls or vases as pictured 
at right, or combined with other dwarf-growing flowers. The long, slender stems, 
usually free from lateral branches, are ideal for cutting and make it possible to 
use them with long-stemmed flowers as well as with the short-stemmed, small 
flowers ordinarily used in miniature vases. Color range, red, orange, yellow, 
pink and rose. Pkg. 1 5c; large pkg. 45c.
