ZINNIAS * Youth and Old Age 
Few flowers provide a more gorgeous display with less care or at- 
tention; all they require is a sunny spot to cause them to grow and 
bloom vigorously from early summer until frost. The seed may be 
sown in the garden any time during April or May and the plants 
thinned or transplanted to stand 8 to 18 inches apart, according to 
variety. The largest specimen blooms are produced on plants that are 
grown on a mellow, moderately rich soil and given ample room to 
develop.
