Calendula, Chrysantha 
CALENDULA • Pot Marigold 
One of the best and showiest free-flowering hardy annuals, growing in any good 
garden soil, producing a fine effect in beds or mixed borders. It is particularly bright 
in late fall, continuing in bloom from early summer until killed by frost. Valuable also 
for pot culture, blooming freely in winter and early spring. 1 ft. 
Chrysantha. This new, buttercup-yellow Calendula makes a very bright showing. 
In form it is a distinct change from former types and resembles a fully developed 
Japanese chrysanthemum. The plants are vigorous, producing an unusual number 
of long-stemmed flowers which are very fine for cutting. This is a nice item to grow 
for road-side stand sale. Moz. 30 cts.; oz. SI; MIb. $3.50. 
Campfire or Sensation. This enormous brilliant orange with a scarlet sheen and 
full yellow center does not show any of the dark center so objectionable in the 
modern Calendula. Equally worthy as a garden flower or as a forcing subject.

Orange Shaggy. This distinct break in the Calendula family is the most graceful 
form yet developed and will be a great favorite for cutting. The flower-heads are 
made up of a large number of deeply Iaciniated petals, this feature giving the effect 
of shagginess. The color—rich orange-yellow—provides a bright accent for the 
garden. Well-grown, Orange Shaggy has long stems and forms plants about 18 
inches high. One of the Gold Medal Winners All-America Seed Selections, 1935.
