COMPARATIVE ZINNIA FLOWER TYPES 
Outstanding Novelties 
IN RECENT YEARS 
We have tested in our garden most all the New Novelties that have been advertised in recent 
years and have found by actual test about four unusual flowers that were outstanding and could be 
eee to the average gardener with a true feeling that they would get all or more than expected 
in a novelty. 
FIRST—THE CROWN OF GOLD ZINNIA, in pastel shades. This Zinnia is of the California Giant type 
and its improvement can be appreciated by any novice. The delicate tints of the overlapping petals 
of many shades makes a beautiful sight that you will never forget. Seeds, 10c pkg. 
SECOND—MARIGOLD DWARF GIGANTEA POT O’ GOLD is one of those extraordinary plants which 
combine three outstanding characteristics, showiness, fragrance, and exceptional size. The plants are 
dwarf and compact, growing 12” to 15” in height, well branched, very neat, and bearing a dozen or 
more of its large blooms at once. The flowers are loosely formed, very full centered, with broad 
heavy petals gracefully overlapping, and is of a most penetrating shade of bright deep golden orange. 
Good for bedding as well as cutting. Seeds 10c pkg. 
THIRD—MARIGOLD HARMONY. This is an unusual French Marigold, dwarf, covered with mahogany 
and yellow flowers from early Summer until frost. The most interesting thing about this variety is the 
great number of flowers and long blooming period. Seeds, 10c pkg. 
FOURTH—SCARLET O’HARA MORNING GLORY. We think this is the most unusual Morning Glory 
ever introduced. It is covered with red flowers all Summer, and when the sky is overcast, will remain 
open all day. Requires poor soil. Seeds 10c pkg. 
We also carry a majority of the 1941 novelties, most of which we tried out in our garden last year, 
{seeds being furnished in advance by the growers,) such as; The Blue Moon Scabiosa, Dazzler Larkspur, 
many of the new Marigolds, Petunias, Calendulas, and Miniature Zinnias. They were very lovely, how- 
ever, they did not show such marked improvement over the older varieties as did the ones described 
above. 
If you desire any further information, your inquiry will be appreciated.
