ZINNIA Fantasy 
"SCARLETT O'HARA" 
The most brilliant color so far developed in the Fantasy group. 
This is the most interesting of the newer zinnia developments, 
and its friendly informality has made it a reigning favorite. As 
a cut flower for indoor decoration and as a free flowering 
colorful summer flower it is unsurpassed. 
The new variety “SCARLETT O’HARA” is a brilliant, flame 
scarlet, the most vivid and sparkling of all red shades.
