COSMCS FIESTA 
Top Ail America Winner 1952 
COSMOS FIESTA. The festival colors of Old 
Mexico, combined in one flower. All Amer- 
ica’s TOP AWARD for 1952. For the first 
time there is true scarlet in Cosmos. Early, 
heat-loving, easy to grow, Fiesta makes a 
compact 214’ plant with a riot of bloom all 
summer long. Flowers are semi-double, ruf- 
fled, borne like tropical birds amidst lacy 
foliage. A cutflower for the house and a 
handsome border subject. Pkt. 25c. ZINNIA

All America Winner 
ZINNIA PERSIAN CARPET 
Like tiny dahlias, each with its pointed petals tipped with contrast, 
these perfect miniature Zinnias make the ideal garden edging subject. 
Dwarf plants begin blooming early; grow into tidy, well-behaved 12” 
mounds of brilliant color, each plant different. Pick dozens of 
flowers, no two alike (yes, they do have cutting stems, and dainty 
foliage quite unlike most Zinnias). The variegated flowers, each the 
size of a silver dollar, fit uniquely in the modern house, yet look 
perfectly at home in an old-fashioned bouquet. The perfect size for 
window boxes; apartment gardens. Easy to grow, thriving on heat, 
it produces a wealth of bloom with minimum care. Pkt. 25¢c. ASTERS, WILT-RESISTANT SUPER GIANTS
