COLLARETTE—CROWN OF GOLD 
Collarette—Crown of Gold. New! Gold 
Medal Winner A.A.S. 1937. An entirely new 
type of flower, the crown resembles a chrysan- 
themum, and is made up of long disc petals 
that curve inward and interlace, while the col¬ 
larette is made up of broad petals of the same 
brilliant shade of pleasing, golden orange. The 
flowers, l/i in. across, are delicately sweet 
scented. It is the first and only marigold in 
cultivation to have foliage entirely free of the 
customary marigold odor. Early and free flow¬ 
ering all summer until frost. 2 ft. Pkt. 25c 
Tall African Giants 
Gigantea Sunset Giants. Showiness, 
fragrance and exceptional size are the 
outstanding characteristics of this delight¬ 
ful new introduction. Blooms of im¬ 
mense size, 5 to 6 in. across, often at¬ 
taining 7]/ 2 in. under ideal conditions, 
borne in profusion on plants about 4 ft. 
high. Comes about 60% double. Color 
range from light lemon yellow to golden 
orange. The usual marigold odor is re¬ 
placed by a definitely sweet fragrance. 
Prize Strain All Double Orange. Im¬ 
mense, very double exhibition flowers, 
globular blooms of compact tubular or 
quilled petals. Rich, glowing orange. 3 
to 3ft. Pkts. 25c and 10c

perfect form and large size as above, but

Golden Emblem. Rich gold, mid¬ 
shade between lemon and orange, 4 to 
5 in. blooms. Pkts. 25c and 10c 
Tall African Carnation Flowered 
Golden Eagle. A distinctive and de¬ 
lightful shade of luminous gold which 
is a pleasing rival to the popular Guinea 
Gold. It has the same habit, height and 
form. The flowers come 100% double 
and quite early. The usual marigold 
odor is practically lacking. Its place as 
the most graceful of all marigolds, and its long 
life as a superb cut flower will make it one of 
the most outstanding novelties for 1937.

Chrysanthemum Flowered Hybrids, Many 
new and distinct types of marigolds have been 
created by plant hybridizers in recent years, 
which have been collected and are now offered 
in this glorious mixture. Some have petals 
which are very quilled and incurved, others of 
imbricated types with small quilled florets in the 
center and 4 to 5 rows of flat petals. These 
beautiful types are quite variable and most de¬ 
sirable. Plants about 3 ft. high. Orange and 
yellow shades. Pkts. 60c, 3 5c and 15c 
Dixie Sunshine. Fascinating, large ball shaped 
flowers composed of dozens of tiny five petaled
