CE$ HUNDREDS OF FLOWERS 
1333. LINEARIUS. H. A. This new little dwarf Zinnia, much resem¬ 
bling a Daisy, is one of the most interesting of the new flowers. It begins 
to flower when the plants are about six inches tall and keeps right on 
throughout the season until the late frosts of autumn. It never looks un¬ 
tidy as the dozens of newly opened flowers prevent the faded ones from 
becoming prominent. Flowers are single and a lovely shade of golden- 
orange with a delicate lemon-yellow striiie through each petal, while the 
center is a dark brown with the young flowers turning to golden-orange as 
the flower develops. Plants reach a height of eight to ten inches, and with 
plenty of room for development, they spread as much as two feet in a sea¬ 
son. Literally hundreds of flowers are open at a time. It is excellent for 
borders or edging and also for window boxes or for growing in the garden 
where a dwarf growing plant with vivid coloring is desired. They last 
nearly two weeks when cut and placed in water. It usually begins to flower 
ten weeks after the seed is sown. Pkt., 10c; 2 pkts., 15c; Ys oz., 40c; Vi

height, 100 i)er cent double, and flowering commences about two and one- 
half months after seed is sown. The flowers are of medium size, rather

have the strono- Marigold odor. The color range include.s the popular Har¬ 
mony, a lovely golden-orange shade, distinct golden-yellow, and innumerable 
blotched and striped combinations of golden-orange

more rose shades in one bloom. The blooms are unbelievably large, live to

are onlv five to six inches tall. Es])eciallv fine for pots or window boxes.
