Biuuias Were Made for the South 
Zinnias can be planted all during the spring and sum- 
mer. Sow seed a quarter-inch deep, no more, thinning out 
the young plants from 12 to 14 inches apart. Dwarf types 
may be allowed to remain closer. To have a succession 
of flowers, it is a good idea to make several sowings dur- 
ing the spring and summer.
