The Zinnia is one of the most popular garden flowers today. Large 4-5 inch pink blooms on tall strong plants are unexcelled for cutting and excellent for background plantings.

THINNING…When plants are 3-6 inches tall thin or transplant to stand 1 ½ feet apart in rows 2 ½ feet apart.
GERMINATION…Germinates in 5 to 7 days depending on soil and weather conditions.
REMARKS…One of the easiest kinds to grow from seed. Satisfactory results are obtained by sowing as late as early July.
