Calendula or Scotch Marigold 
| ° e 
Henderson’s Superior Double Strains 
See colored plate page 101 f 
The Calendulas of pana Owens garden were familiarly known by the 
old-fashioned name of Pot Marigold; by which name they were known since 
the days of Shakespeare. 
Although the old-fashioned Calendulas were highly prized for their ease of 
culture and extremely free blooming qualities, the flowers were small and single, 
pad could in no way be comvared to the wonderful double varieties which we 
offer today. 
The popularity of this beautiful flower has been greatly advanced by the 
commercial florists, who grow hundreds of thousands of them in their green- 
houses during the winter and outdoors during the summer months to supply 
the demand of the retail cutflower trade. ' 
Henderson's Improved Caldendulas form bushy plants one foot Bigh by one 
foot in diameter, and are literally covered with the large showy double flowers. 
Our seed has been saved from only the largest and most perfect flowers in 
shape, size, depth and color.
