Zinnia, Crown o' Gold 
865 MIXED. This new Zinnia derives its 
name and distinction from the fact 
that each petal of the flower is over- 
laid with a deep golden-yellow at the 
base, while carrying out the individual 
flower color at the tip. The effect is a 
very pleasing two-tone color harmony. 
The color range comprises the more 
popular shades, including old rose, 
cream, yellow, carmine, and burnished 
red; the latter a new shade in Zinnias.

Fantasy Zinnias 
New Zinnias are always welcomed by 
home gardeners and florists alike. While 
the Giant Flowered varieties are still 
popular, the trend of late years has been 
toward the smaller flowered, more grace- 
ful types. This new Fantasy Zinnia 
meets this demand in all details. The 
rounded flowers are composed of a mass 
of shaggy ray-like petals which give a 
delicate and refined appearance to the 
medium sized double flowers, large 
enough to satisfy the desire for massive 
color, yet small enough to lend them- 
selves gracefully to flower arrangements. 
Plants 2% to 3 feet in height, will bloom 
in 45 to 50 days after seed is planted.
