Calendula (Pot Marigold) 
CALENDULA 
(Pot Marigold) 
“The Marigold of Shakespeare’s time.” One of 
the most popular and easily grown hardy 
annuals. The plants are free-flowering and 
do well in almost any situation, although 
they prefer a warm, loose soil. They bloom 
the whole season. It is usual to sow the 
seeds where the plants are intended to stand, 
but they will bear transplanting. Calendula 
make good pot plants and flower freely dur¬ 
ing the winter. Oz. Pkt.
