CALCEOLARIAS (Continued) 
Feltham Scarlet 
(Grower's description.) 
This is one of the most striking colors among the splendid hybrid 
Calceolaria which we introduced last year under the name Feltham 
Glory, and we have decided to issue it separately. The plants are 
fairly dwarf and compact in habit and the flowers of a rich dark 
scarlet, which will make a glorious show in the greenhouse and a 
bright display in a somewhat sheltered position in the open ground.

CALENDULAS 
Calendulas in recent years have enjoyed a decided revival of interest. 
Many new shades have been introduced in the standard double form, 
and several new and interesting flower types have been developed. 
One of the most interesting, and certainly the most distinct of these is 
the new laciniated type, Improved Orange Shaggy. Deep orange shad¬ 
ing lighter at the center, exceedingly graceful and informal in appear¬ 
ance, it is a striking contrast to the formal Calendulas in general use. 
The plants are free flowering, neat and compact, bearing long stems 
which make the fringy petaled flowers equally useful in the garden or 
for cutting.

Frilled Beauty 
In line with the active program for improvement and innovations in 
the Calendula group, Frilled Beauty comes as one of the very finest 
new varieties. Although similar in appearance to Orange Shaggy, 
it is actually quite distinct from it. The flowers are large and full, 
completely double, with good stiff petals which are semi rounded 
in appearance, giving good body to the flower. Stems are long and 
fine for cutting, while the plant makes a strong heavy growth. The 
color is a deep orange. You will be entirely satisfied with Frilled 
Beauty.

Chrysantha or Sunshine 
Awarded Gold Medal All-American Selections, 1934. 
Chrysantha (or Sunshine) is distinct in type, a break in Calendulas 
which is outstanding among all varieties known up to the present 
time. The large double flowers are an exquisite shade of clear 
buttercup yellow, with long loosely arranged petals which droop 
somewhat to give the rounded appearance of a Chrysanthemum. 
Besides adding a bright golden splash of color to the garden, Chrys¬ 
antha is remarkable for its long stiff stems, making it ideal for cutting. 
The fact that it won one of the coveted Gold Medals in the All- 
American Selections competitions this year indicates the high esteem 
in which it is held by the horticulturists of the country.

The Ball Calendulas 
New Crop Seed Supplied to Us by Geo. J. Ball, Inc.,

Ball's Masterpiece. Clear rich orange with an attractively contrasting 
dark brown center. This is our most popular standard cutflower variety. 
Ball's Long Orange. The standard long-stemmed orange with light 
center. Preferred by many growers for its long stem. 
Ball's Sensation. Long-stemmed orange with light center. This is a 
selection from Long Orange that seems to do particularly well for 
some growers. 
Ball's Lemon Queen. Clear medium deep yellow with a dark brown 
center that contrasts most effectively. Generally preferred yellow. 
Ball's Gold. Deep golden yellow, long-stemmed and large flower with 
light center. Stem, size, and color in this are outstanding. 
Ball's Supreme. Light shade of orange with a richly contrasting 
brown center, not extra long-stemmed but freer flowering than any 
of the above. 
Ball's Apricot. Rich apricot or straw color with a finely contrasting 
brown center. Same habit as Ball's Supreme, from which it is a 
selection. Inclined to occasionally produce orange petals with the 
apricot. Some should be grown for variety. 
Ball's White. A creamy white of Apricot type. We have an improved 
strain of this variety that comes 75% true. A little should be grown 
for variety.
