GIANT DAHLIA FLOWERED ZINNIA 
ZINNIAS 
Within the last few years these giant Zinnias have 
been improved to perfection. No matter how small 
the garden, it is not complete without these wonder¬ 
ful flowers. In window boxes and large tubs they 
will give great satisfaction and in good soil will 
grow perfectly. In fact, they bring splendid results 
in common soil. They are best suited to a hot place 
in the full sun. You will be surprised at the gorgeous 
colors and large size and how little effort it takes to 
raise them. 
Directions for Sowing: Sow them out in a sandy leaf mould 
soil in pots or boxes. It is best to sow the seeds directly where 
you want them, about three seeds to the spot, two feet apart. 
Cover the seeds about one-eighth inch, not more, otherwise 
they will not come through.
