Zinnias 
Zinnias are one of the most desirable 
and lovely flowers in the garden. They 
grow well in partial shade but like 
most flowers do best in a sunny loca- 
tion. The seed may be planted in the 
garden from April 15th to June 1st, 
and when the plants are two or three 
inches high they should -be thinned out 
to twelve or fifteen inches apart. 
Plants flower from early summer until 
frost.
