Zinnia, Double Dahlia Flowered 
ZiNNIA (HO 3 ft.) 
For years we have prided ourselves upon our strains of 
Zinnias. After careful breeding, we are now able to offer some 
of the finest varieties of Zinnias ever known in the flower world. 
The Double Dahlia Flowered varieties olfered below are the 
last word in Zinnias. These enormous flowers often measure six 
inches across and compare favorably to the best of the dahlias 
in every respect. Any gardener may well be proud of a bed of 
these. Then we have the Giant Double, which is a very superior 
strain of perfect flowers. For best results with Zinnias, sow 
them in a light rich soil as soon as the ground gets warm in the 
spring. Thin them to stand twelve inches apart and cultivate. 
Keep the flowers cut and they will bloom for a long time. Later 
sowing may be made in July.

DOUBLE DAHLIA FLOWERED STRAIN 
This is the best strain of zinnias we have been able.to pro- 
duce. Their large flowers and brilliant colors are far superior 
to the old varieties. Our zinnia seed are grown by a specialist 
in this field who has won world wide acclaim for. his work. If 
you searched the world over, you would find nothing superior to 
Slate’s Dahlia Flowered Zinnias. In former years, we listed 
these by variety names. But a name does not always imply a 
color classification and must be followed by color descriptions. 
So to simplify our catalog and make selection of colors easier, 
we are discarding the variety name and listing them by colors 
only. However, these are all named varieties and we will supply 
the variety names where desired.

our Lilliputs which we have bred especially for Florists use.
