ZINNIA, Howard’s New Giant Crested

Fred H. Howard 
Howard's New Giant Crested Zinnia is the result of many years’ 
selection work on a strain produced by crossing the Dahlia Flowered 
and Scabious Flowered types. Quoting from the originator’s de- 
scription, the following facts are of interest: ‘‘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. The colors included in the strain 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. Pkt. 25c., 1/16 oz. 50c.
