EW garden annuals are more thoroughly satisfactory than zinnias, particularly since 
= in recent years greatly improved larger flowering and more brilliantly colored strains 
have been developed. For bedding, for borders and for cut flowers, they furnish a 
wealth of blooms from early summer till late in the fall. Plant early in rows 1% to 2 feet 
apart and cover about 144 inch deep; or start indoors and transplant outside when the 
ground is warm. Hardy annual.
