African Varieties 
603 GUINEA GOLD. This is a very distinct type of Marigold of graceful pyra¬ 
midal habit, growing 2 to 2% feet high, and producing 30 to 40 flowers, 2 to 
2 y 2 inches across, of a brilliant shade of orange flushed with gold. Unlike the 
ordinary African Marigold, this new variety produces no single flowers, but

is much less pungent than in other sorts. Ya oz., 25c; pkt., 10c.

Marigold, Mexican

co, the original home of so many of our 
favorite garden flowers, this handsome 
new type grows 15 to 18 inches high and

the old African Marigold, being more 
branching than the latter and extremely 
free flowering. Pkt., 20c.

625 HARMONY. While this variety is listed as a dwarf French Double variety, 
it is of a very charming and distinct type. The flowers are quite different froir 
any other Marigold, Scabiosa-like in formation with tubular deep orange

bloom very early. Pkt., 15c; Ya oz., 25c. 
The Queen Strains of Marigolds 
Large Flowered Dwarf African Type 
This new strain of African Marigolds will rapidly And favor for bedding. The 
plants are sturdy and when well grown form perfect pyramids, each carrying as 
many as 30 to 40 flowers fully open at the same time. The large blooms, measuring 
as much as 3 inches across, have flattish petals which take away from the plant 
that coarseness sometimes associated with African Marigolds. The following va¬ 
rieties will produce at least 90 per cent of double flowers. Height 18 inches.
