MARIGOLD. Nat. Ord., Compositor . 
These showy, half-hardy annuals are too well known to need a description. They bloom 
abundantly from early summer until cut off by frost; and, for brilliant effect and long-con¬ 
tinued display, they are not excelled by any garden-flower. The African varieties grow 
about two feet, and the French from six to eighteen inches high. The very dwarf yellow 
makes a brilliant ribbon-border; and Tagetes signata planted singly form elegant compact 
globular plants, densely covered with hundreds of golden-yellow flowers. Set the plauts a 
good distance apart, according to their height.
