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 raylike 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.
