NEW NOVELTIES and Late Introductions 
CALENDULA. “Shaggy” 
NOVELTY 
NEW CALENDULA, NO. 419 
“Shaggy”, or "Roman Gold”, new and 
very attractive. Its Roman gold petals 
are broad and frilled. You would hardly 
recognize it as a Calendula, or Pot Mari¬ 
gold. The stems are long, with good sub¬ 
stance, making it an unusually good cut 
flower and a real novelty for the garden. 
Of very easy culture.

strain of compact, dwarf bedder growing

bloomer, carrying as many as 25 to 30 
flowers on one small plant 8 inches in

mend this new bedder for pots, window 
boxes and rock gardens as well as for 
beds and borders.
