opment. They bear numerous semi-globular, mostly very

TYPES OF ZINNIAS 
FANTASY. Award of Merit, All-America Selections, 1935. The 
most distinctive new Zinnia. As different from the ordinary 
formal Zinnia as one could imagine, the delicate, lacy petaled 
flowers lend an air of friendly informality to the garden or 
flower arrangement. The rounded, medium-sized shaggy flow- 
ers are borne profusely on 2% to 3-foot plants, in a wide and 
varied color range which includes the brightest shades of red, 
yellow and orange, as well as the popular pastel pinks and 
cream. Finest Mixed, pkt. 10c. 
Fantasy Wildfire. The newest Fantasy Zinnia, a dazzling scar- 
Mantasy Zinnias are more popular every year, their gay 
informal flowers being enjoyed by everyone. Very free-bloom- 
ing and early flowering, they are very easy to grow. We rec- 
ommend planting seed where they are to flower.

CROWN 0O’ GOLD. Desert Gold is an aristocrat among Zin- 
nias. The flowers are large, double and well formed, on good 
cutting stems, generously produced on plants which reach a 
height of 2% to 3 feet. It is a good garden variety but its 
main claim to individuality and distinction is the delightful 
color combination of the flowers. The variety comprises the 
light and deep shades of gold while each petal is overlaid at 
the base with a deeper goiden yellow. Pastel Shades. 
HOWARD’S GIANT CRESTED ZINNIA. Its colors 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. 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. As a cut flower, or as an an- 
ee ope garden ornamentation, they are without a peer.
