Zinnia Fantasy, Melody 
1348. MELODY. H. A. The Fantasy type of 
Zinnia has proven very popular from the time 
it first originated several years ago. Its 
shaggy and informal flowers give it an airy 
and graceful appearance not found in the other 
types. As a cut flower, it is ideal. This new 
color, a striking and distinct vivid lavender, 
is unusual. The blossoms are medium size and 
plants grow about two to three feet in height. 
Will flower from seed in about fifty days. We 
do not recommend transplanting the Fantasy 
type. Pkt., 15c; 2 pkts., 25c. 
103514. MISSION 
GIANT-GOLDSMITH. H. 
A. Mission Giant is a 
new strain of Marigold of medium height with 
They are base 
producing from eight to twelve 
stems of excellent cutting length. The laterals 
or side branches produce just as large, if not 
| larger blooms, than the center stems. It is 
gi very early, coming into bloom fully two weeks 
ahead of the ordinary Sunshine types. The ball- 
shaped blooms measure from four to five 
inches in diameter and resemble giant in- 
curved Chrysanthemums. The great number of 
small florets that go to make up the huge 
blooms are tubular except near the top where 
the tubes seem to separate into five miniature 
ribbon-like parts that curl and twist to form a 
perfect ball-shaped incurved flower. Goldsmith 
is a rich golden orange which makes a brilliant 
display in the garden. Pkt., 15c; 2 pkts., 25c.
