CALIFORNIA GIANT. Our special strain of this favorite 
produces flowers of colossal size, specimens measuring from 
5 to 6 inches across being not unusual. The plants are of ex¬ 
tremely robust habit, attaining a height of about 3 feet, and 
should be spaced 18 to 24 inches apart to allow for full devel¬ 
opment. They bear numerous semi-globular, mostly very 
double flowers all of the largest size, making them of great 
value in large beds, borders, etc. Grown under favorable con¬ 
ditions they remain in bloom from early summer to late 
autumn. Their long stems make them ideal for cutting.

mer. While the color range includes all popular shades, it is 
particularly rich in shades of crimson, scarlet, orange, yellow 
and pink. Mixed colors, pkt. 10c.

FANTASY. Award of Merit, All-America Selections, 1935. The 
most distinctive new Zinnia. As different from the ordinary 
formal Zinnia as one could imagine, the delicate, lacy petaled 
flowers lend an air of friendly informality to the garden or 
flower arrangement. The rounded, medium-sized shaggy flow¬ 
ers are borne profusely on 2 y 2 to 3-foot plants, in a wide and 
varied color range which includes the brightest shades of red, 
yellow and orange, as well as the popular pastel pinks and 
cream. Finest Mixed, pkt. 10c.

GROUP OF DAHLIA ZINNIAS 
HOWARD’S GIANT CRESTED ZINNIA. Its colors are 
charmingly bright and fresh, and contain almost all known 
colors and shades of color to be found in this most popular of 
annual plants. Magnificent shades of orange, orange scarlet, 
yellow, rose, maize and crimson predominate. The blossoms 
average from 4 to 5 inches in diameter, with a full rounded 
cushiony center surrounded by broad guard petals after the 
style of a Pyrethrum Roseum. As a cut flower, or as an an¬ 
nual for garden ornamentation, they are without a peer.

CROWN O’ GOLD. Desert Gold is an aristocrat among Zin¬ 
nias. The flowers are large, double and well formed, on good 
cutting stems, generously produced on plants which reach a 
height of 2y 2 to 3 feet. It is a good garden variety but its 
main claim to individuality and distinction is the delightful 
color combination of the flowers. The variety comprises the 
light and deep shades of gold while each petal is overlaid at 
the base with a deeper golden yellow. 
Desert Gold. (Yellow). Pastel Shades. Mixed Colors.
