McCULLOUGH’S ZINNIAS FOR EVERY PURPOSE 
Few, if any, annuals have greater utility value than the Zinnia. Many distinct types have 
been developed, some bearing flowers of enormous size and others producing miniature double 
blooms in profusion. For early flowers sow seed indoors in March and transplant seedlings to 
the garden in early May, or, 1f preferred, sow seed in open ground in April. Space the large- 
flowering and taller sorts from 1% to 2 feet apart, Pompon or Lilliput types 8 to 12 inches apart. 
Giant Dahlia-Flowered Zinnias 
The flowers are immense, often measuring 
5 to 6 inches across and 3 to 4 inches in depth. 
They are borne profusely from late summer 
until frost. Plants are 24% to 3 feet tall, of 
well-rounded form.
