ZINNIAS 
Schling’s New Giant 
rable Crate a) xed 
(Originator’s stock.) (Howard & Smith.) The illus- 
tration On our cover serves far better to describe the all- 
around excellence of this marvelous new introduction 
for 1941. Zinnias are a family of annual flowers which 
have through the past generation proved themselves to 
be the most satisfactory of all garden annuals and, while 
universally popular, have never been overdone. 
This new race of Scabious-flowered is the result of 
careful hybridization between the Scabious-flowered and 
the Giant Dahlia-flowered Zinnias, the former having 
been introduced 5 years ago. The color ranges through 
magnicent shades of orange, yellow, rose, buff, orange- 
scarlet and crimson. It has taken 10 years of skillful 
hybridization to produce this gorgeous new strain that 
all will agree is most excellent for cut flower purposes 
and whose general effect in the garden is breath-taking. 
Pkt., 50c; 5 pkts., $2.25; 10 pkts., $4.00. 
ASTERS 
New Princess Cype 
WILT-RESISTANT 
The presentation of a new Aster as a novelty is nothing 
unusual for hardly a year passes when the excellent 
American seed hybridizers do not introduce several im- 
provements over existing varieties. However, when a 
new type comes into existence, it is really worthy of note. 
The new Princess type has a full crested center sur- 
rounded by several rows of strong guard petals. The 
keeping qualities of these flowers is exceptional. Flowers 
will form 3 to 3% inches across, early flowering, blooming 
in early August and 100% wilt-resistant.
