ZINNIAS HAVE CHANGED A LOT IN A FEW YEARS

delightful fragrance. Perennial sorts should be sown in autumn 
and carried over in coldfraine; annual sorts may be sown indoors 
in March and will flower the first year from seed. Valuable for green¬ 
house culture.

Zinnia HA 
Zinnias are in the top rank of garden favorites. They are easy to 
grow, do well in all soils, and give a lavish display of color even in 
the hottest driest summers.

are imbricated and flat, getting away from the conical type of the

tionable in Zinnias in the past. The blooms, from the time they open, 
are attractive, making a fine cut-flower. 3 to 4 feet high.
