One of the very best annuals for a border 
or for bedding because of its line form, 
brilliant color and very long season of 
flowering. Botanically the marigolds all 
come in the genus Tagetes. 
The culture of marigolds is very simple, but to 
insure a long season of bloom the seed should be 
started inside and transplanted to permanent beds 
after danger of frost. Where it is inconvenient to 
start plants indoors, seed may be sown sparingly 
outside, thinning the seedlings to 1 or 2 feet apart, 
depending on variety.
