£Marigold 
Guinea Gold —Carnation Flowered 
Distinctly new in type, of graceful pyramidal habit, Guinea 
Gold produces a neat, compact plant, about 2^4 ft. high, liter¬ 
ally covered with blossoms. The flowers, about 2^ inches 
across, are semi-double in character, and loosely ruffled. The 
color is a brilliant golden orange or California gold, the color 
so much in demand by florists. When first introduced in Eng¬ 
land, it was offered as a bedding plant, but in the United States 
it quickly became known as the florists' cut flower, and its suc¬ 
cess has been phenomenal. The absence of the characteristic 
marigold odor has been in its favor, as well as its excellent 
keeping qualties when used as a cut flower. Pkt. 15c; ^4 oz. 
$1.00; oz. $1.75.
