Hallawell’s ZINNIAS 
UNIVERSAL FAVORITES 
You may have them large and small, tall and dwarf—any of them excellent for cutting, as well 
as for gay, showy mass effect in the garden. 
Hallawell’s Zinnias are of the finest gold medal strains, in brilliant colors or in pastel shades. 
They are easy to grow and thrive in hot summer season, in full sun, blooming continuously for 
a long period and keep well when cut. 
Sow the seed in the open ground after the soil has become thoroughly warm. Thin out the large 
flowered varieties to stand about 2 feet apart, and the smaller flowering sorts about 1 foot. 
If you have never grown the little Haageana zinnias, plant one packet, just for bowl arrange- 
ments. They are really charming.
