Wood’s Giant Zinnias

in recent years greatly improved larger flowering and more brilliantly colored strains 
have been developed. For bedding, for borders and for cut flowers, they furnish a\ 
wealth of blooms from early summer till late in the fall. Plant early in rows 1 '/ 2 to 2 feet 
apart and cover about 14 inch deep; or start indoors and transplant outside when the> 
ground is warm. Hardy annual.
