GRACILLIMA— 
New Cupid Zinnias 
Cupid Zinnias—the smallest of 
all—ideal for cutting 
Compact plants, about 1 foot 
tall, consist of a large number 
of slender branches which give 
the plant a well-rounded, bushy 
habit. Each of the numerous 
upright stems bears a miniature 
flower which hardly exceeds 1 
inch in diameter. Plants are 
very floriferous; a mass of color 
through the summer and fall. 
They are as easy to grow as 
any Zinnias. 
Cupid Zinnias are especially 
adapted for borders, bedding 
and rock gardens, and as a min- 
iature cut flower. The long, 
slender stems, usually free from 
lateral branches, are ideal for 
cutting and may be used alone, 
as pictured above, or with long- 
stemmed flowers as well as 
with the short-stemmed small 
flowers ordinarily used in min- 
iature vases.

Cut-and-Come-Again Zinnias 
(Elegans pumila flore pleno) All Double 
Miniature Mission Zinnias 
Branching 2 Feet Tall, Flowers 214 Inches Across 
Flowers are medium-sized, about 214 in. across, well rounded 
and freely produced on long stems; ideal for cutting. The 
compact, branching plants, which in an average soil grow 
about 2 ft. tall, keep on blooming from early midsummer 
until frost, making an attractive display in beds or borders, 
and yielding an abundance of long-keeping cut flowers for 
house decoration. In fact, the more flowers you cut, the 
more the plants will bloom. For those who prefer medium 
size flowers, especially for low bowls or vases, Cut-and- 
Come-Again Zinnias will be found most satisfactory.

680 Flowers grow about 2/4 in. across, and are produced 
so profusely that, regardless of how many you cut, there 
always seem to be more. A bed or border of these giant 
flowers on dwarf plants, about 12 in. tall, is a sight to be- 
hold; a vase of the cut blooms is most attractive. Bowl—
