ZINNIAS 
Zinnias are hot weather loving flowers 
and should never be sown until the soil 
has thoroughly warmed up and all dan- 
ger of any frost has passed. If possible 
plant seed where they are to grow for 
Zinnias resent transplanting. To induce 
a thrifty, heavy root system, irrigate 
your plants rather than sprinkle. Always 
cultivate after each irrigation to con- 
serve moisture. The Dahlia Zinnia is 
large flowered but the edges are rolled 
like a Dahlia. California Giants are large, 
flat flowers. Lilliputs are small flowers, 
but grow to 2% to 3 feet tall. Tom Thumb 
are dwarf plants of 8 to 10 inches tall and 
small flowers. Other varieties listed are 
explained in regular listing.
