MARIGOLD 
These old-fashioned favorites are annuals of the very easiest cultivation. Both 
the French and African classes are very effective. The former have the small, velvety 
flowers, in pretty combinations of yellow, brown, maroon, 
and striped effects; the African sorts are the enormous- 
flowered ones, in very showy orange and lemon shades. 
Both are popular for beds, borders, and cut-flowers. 
They bloom profusely all summer. Start the seed early in a box in the house or 
plant directly in the garden when the weather is warm.
