Though the development of the Zinnia has been 
marked since 1798 when David Landreth first brought 
it back from Mexico, those who are curious to see the 
type from which the present large flowered forms were 
developed, may do so by planting Zinnia Haageana 
Mexicana, for these are nearest to the great-great- 
grandparents of this most satisfactory and useful flower.
