GIANT FLOWERED ZINNIAS A 
Most gorgeous of annuals with a wonderful range 
of color. Extremely double flowers with long stems 
and good keeping qualities make this old fashioned 
flower a joy in the garden. If grown in a sunny spot 
in well fertilized soil and watered freely the flowers 
will be more completely double. To grow extra large 
zinnias, thin so the plants are twelve to fifteen inches 
apart in the row and rows three feet apart for the 
giant and two feet apart for the small varieties. Do 
not plant until all danger of frost is past and do not 
plant nearer to trees than the height of the tree. Dust 
with finely ground sulphur when the first buds are 
beginning to form at the rate of pound per square 
rod to avoid mildew. Nearly all varieties of Zinnia 
will vary somewhat in trueness.
