Calendula—Campfire 
The color of this exquisite 
variety is a deep strong 
orange with a distinct scar¬ 
let sheen on the upper side 
of each petal. While the 
center is light, this is scarce¬ 
ly ever noticed because of 
the complete doubleness of 
the flower. Blooms are flat 
across the top, and measure 
at least four inches in diameter. 
The plants are strong growing 
and even in habit, with excep¬ 
tionally long, heavy cutting 
stems, produced in generous 
quantity on each plant. This 
strain is especially developed 
for the cut flower trade, and we 
feel sure will more than fulfill 
all claims for it. Pkt. 15c; 
2 pkts. 25c; % oz. 40c.
