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, too, which adds 

 to their beauty. 



Tall Double Sorts [2J>3 ft.] These are useful for border decoration and 

 produce handsome cut flowers. 



Dark Brown Gold Striped Lemon Orange Mixed 



Any one of the above: 1 2 oz. 40c; pkt. 10c 



Dwarf Double Varieties [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 bril- 

 liant shades of the weU-formed flowers stand out strikingly against the 

 dark foliage.

 petals of rich golden yellow, beautifuUy blotched at the center with a 

 clean edged spot of velvety garnet.

MANDEVILLEA (Chilian Jasmine) [tP-C-10 ft.] A fine summer climber 

 suitable for a mild chmate, such as California's, as the plant is only 

 partially hardy. The vine produces loose groupings of leaves and great 

 clusters of large white or yellow blossoms of waxy substance. The 

 flowers are trumpet-shaped, five petaled, about 2 inches across, ■u'ith a frag- 

 rance something like that cf Jasmine.

 and bushy with finelj' cut dark green foliage. The double button-like 

 flowers are dainty white and grow in terminal clusters; they are ex- 

 cellent for cutting. The plants are attractive in the garden, too, and 

 bloom all summer long.

MARIGOLD \\iX\ 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 gi'een fohage 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.

 globular flowers composed of compact tubular or quilled 

 petals. The stems should be cut carefullj' to avoid the 

 somewhat disagreeable odor when bruised.

 practically all of the flowers are double. ]4, oz. 75c; pkt. 10c
