ZINNIAS 
There are some very good reasons why Zin- 
nias are America’s most popular annual flow- 
ers, They do well anywhere in the country 
with practically no care. 
They thrive in hot 
sun and drouth and do well in partial shade. 
They have a wide variety of sizes, shapes and 
colors and have few equals for beauty and 
brilliance. 
They can be used in beds or borders 
and keep well indoors as cut flowers. And they 
cost so little!
