Zinnia, Crown o' Gold 
864 MIXED. This new Zinnia derives its 
name and distinction from the fact 
that each petal of the flower is over¬ 
laid with a deep golden-yellow at the 
base, while carrying out the individual 
flower color at the tip. The effect is a 
very pleasing two-tone color harmony. 
The color range comprises the more 
popular shades, including old rose, 
cream, yellow, carmine, and burnished 
red; the latter a new shade in Zinnias.

Fantasy Zinnias 
New Zinnias are always welcomed by 
home gardeners and florists alike. While 
the Giant Flowered varieties are still 
popular, the trend of late years has been 
toward the smaller flowered, more grace¬ 
ful types. This new Fantasy Zinnia 
meets this demand in all details. The 
rounded flowers are composed of a mass 
of shaggy ray-like petals which give a 
delicate and refined appearance to the 
medium sized double flowers, large 
enough to satisfy the desire for massive 
color, yet small enough to lend them¬ 
selves gracefully to flower arrangements. 
Plants 2% to 3 feet in height, will bloom 
in 45 to 50 days after seed is planted.

Gaillardia-Flowered Zinnia 
877 Navajo. Another of the newer Zinnia 
types, being entirely different from all 
others and resembling the double flow¬ 
ering Gaillardia. The flowers are at¬ 
tractive, of medium size, about 2 inches 
in diameter, just a good size for cut 
flower use, and are carried on stems of 
medium heiglit. The plants are about 
2 feet tall and very free flowering. Each 
petal of these double and semi-double 
flowers, for about one-third its length, 
is heavily tipped creamy white, 
creamy yellow, or a lighter color than 
the balance of the flower. This two- 
color effect is most unusual and attrac¬ 
tive. The colors range through the mel¬ 
low tones of rose, pink, bronze, yellow, 
orange, lavender and combinations of 
these colors. Most of the flowers, in 
fact, are two-toned, with a ring of 
deeper color toward the center of the 
flower. In fact, the colorings are sim¬ 
ilar to those found in a Navajo rug, 
hence its name. Flowers will be pro¬ 
duced about 45 days after seed is sown.
