MARIGOLD AFRICAN 
Carnation Flowered "Golden Eagle" 
Closely related to the popular variety Guinea Gold. GOLDEN 
EAGLE has the same habit, height and form of flower: but the color 
is a delightful shade of luminous gold, pleasing and distinctive. The 
plants come 100% double and the usual marigold odor is practically 
lacking. It is early flowering. 
Golden Eagle as a cut flower is superb and will become more 
popular than Guinea Gold, not only with the florist but also in the 
home garden. Golden Eagle is the most attractive of all marigolds 
and is lasting as a cut flower. 
Price per oz. .$.80; per lb. $10.00 
Carnation Flowered "Lemon Gem" 
Another companion to Guinea Gold: height and habit are exactly 
the same. The color is a rich lemon yellow, a few shades deeper than 
Yellow Supreme.
