ZINNIAS ; 
Zinnias are hot weather loving flowers and should never 
be sown until the soil has thoroughly warmed up and all 
danger of any frost has passed. If possible, plant seed 
where they are to grow for Zinnias resent transplanting. To 
induce a thrifty, 
heavy root system, irrigate your plants 
rather than sprinkling. Always cultivate after each irriga- 
tion to conserve moisture. The Dahlia Zinnia is large flow- 
ered but the edges are rolled like a Dahlia. California Giants 
are large, flat flowers. Lilliputs are small flowers, but 
grow to 2% to 3 feet tall. Tom Thumb are dwarf plants of
