MARIGOLD [hA] Late in the season when many other grow- 

 ing things are past their prime, these plants supply an 

 abundance of decorative blossoms. Their tones of orange 

 and yellow blend well when the flowers are arranged loosely 

 in bowls and vases. The bright green foliage is finely cut, 

 and the stems are stout. Tall Marigolds give charm to the 

 border, while the dwarfs are valuable for bedding and make 

 ideal edging plants. 



African Tail Double (Tagetes erecta) [2}^ ft.] Very large 

 globular flowers composed of compact tubular or quilled 

 petals. The stems should be cut carefully to avoid the 

 somewhat disagreeable odor when bruised.

French (Tagetes patula) This Marigold is more floriferous 

 than the African, but bears smaller flowers. As a rule, 

 instead of being quilled the petals are flat and over- 

 lapping. They are often two-toned, which adds to their 

 beauty. 



Tall Double [2)4 ft-] These are useful for border decora- 

 tion and produce handsome cut flowers.

Dwarf Double [10 in.] These are the most noteworthy of 

 the French strains, and the symmetrically rounded plants 

 have few equals for bedding and edging. The blooming 

 period is long, and the brilliant shades of the well-formed 

 flowers stand out strikingly against the dark foliage.

of Guinea Gold (left). You'll like the shades of yellow and gold together 



in your garden.

 quite similar in habit and 

 usefulness to the dwarf

Guinea Gold (African) [2 ft.] Carnation-like petals and un- 

 usually brilliant golden color make this flower outstanding 

 among Marigolds. It lacks much of the pungent odor of 

 other Marigolds. The plant blooms very freely, and 

 practically all of the flowers are double. J^ oz. 40c; pkt. 10c 



Yellow Supreme (African) [26 in.] This is the newest of 

 the Marigolds. The fluffy flowers of light golden yellow are 

 double and semi-double, with petals broad and loose. The 

 inner petals are shorter, curving in slightly so that the 

 center is partly covered. The foliage is dark green with 

 paler green stems. This Marigold does not have the odor 

 which is disagreeable to some people; it is even slightly 

 fragrant. }4 oz. 50c; pkt. 10c 



MATRICARIA (Feverfew) [hP-2 ft.] 

 If sown early, this, the real perennial 

 Feverfew, will bloom promptly the first season. The plants 

 are erect and bushy with finely cut dark green foliage. The 

 double button-like flowers are dainty M'hite and grow m ter- 

 minal clusters; they are excellent for cutting. The plants are 

 attractive in the garden, too, and bloom all summer long.
