Cupid Zinnias—the smallest of all—ideal for cutting 
Tiny Cupid Zinnias 
Compact plants, about 1 ft. tall, consist of a large number 
of slender branches, each bearing a double flower which 
hardly exceeds 1 in. in diameter. Plants are very floriferous; 
a mass of color through the summer and fall; especially 
adapted for borders, bedding and rock gardens, and as a 
miniature cut flower. They may be used alone, as pictured 
above, or with other flowers ordinarily used in small vases 
or bowls. They are as easy to grow as any zinnia.
