Plant Binuias for Color aud Satisfactiou 
Zinnias can be planted all during the spring and summer. Sow 
seed a quarter-inch deep, no more, thinning out the young plants 
from 12 to 14 inches apart. Dwarf types may be allowed to remain 
closer. To have a succession of flowers, it is a good idea to make 
several sowings during the spring and summer.
