 BURPEE HYBRID ZINNIAS 
Burpee Giant Hybrid Zinnias are the loveliest new flowers 
ever created. They include both first and second generation 
hybrids with the result that the flowers are bigger than those 
of the dahlia flowered zinnias. And, being hybrids, there is a 
pleasing variation in the petal formation, the majority being 
of the informal fluffy or ruffled type, some attractively curled, 
others gracefully quilled. The feathery, loosely arranged petals 
give the flowers an airy appearance, free of the stiffness often 
associated with other zinnias. As easy to grow as any zinnias. 
Their glistening beauty, stem length and keeping quality 
make them one of the most popular of all cut flowers. The 
plants are strong growing, free blooming, 2% to 3 [t. tall and 
ideal for garden decoration. Highly prized for exhibition. :
