DREER'S CHOICE ZINNIAS (Youth and Old Age) The Zinnia is one of the most brQliant, showy and satisfactory of annuals, and has long been a general favorite, and are now en- joying a wide popularity not only for garden decoration but also for cutting. The seed can be sown early in the hotbed or light window and transplanted, or sown later in the open ground. They come into flower early in the sum- mer, and keep on blooming until frost. The varieties offered below and on page 57, are the most important kinds, but the sorts offered on page 117 should not be overlooked. } DREER'S SPECIAL STRAIN OF Giant Double Zinnias A special strain of this grand old favorite free and continuous flowering annual, which produces flowers of colossal size, specimens measuring from 5 to 6 inches across being not unusual. Plants are of extremely ro- bust habit, attaining a height of about 3 feet and bearing on long strong stems semi-globular, mostly very double flowers, grown under favorable conditions they remain in bloom from early summer to late autumn. Large-flowering Dwarf Double Zinnia Salmon-rose Dreer's Large-flowering Dwarf Double Zinnias This we consider the best Zinnia for bedding, forming bushy, compact plants not over 2 feet high, and bearing large perfect double flowers in good clear distinct colors. The salmon-rose variety is especially effective and is largely used in the finest gardens in the country. Illustrated in colors on plate opposite page 57. PER ^oz.
