MARIGOLDS—Continued 
DWARF. Excellent for borders. Freer and continuous flowering. 
*Floribunda Orange. (New). Same large flower and rich color 
as Guinea Gold, but extra dwarf, 12 to 15 in. tall. Unusually 
free and continuous blooming, even under our hot mid- 
western conditions. Fine for borders. (See cut below). 
Tr. pkt., 25c; x /4 oz., 50c; 1 oz., $1.75.

ing habit of above, but a mixture. Predominately orange 
with some gold and intermediate shades.

Note: Above two varieties a new type of particular value for 
bedding purposes, being especially free flowering throughout 
the summer in our trial grounds alongside of others that 
burnt out badly with the heat.

type; extra free flowering. Quite outstanding for uniform dwarf 
habit and very rich coloring; excellent for low borders. See Nov¬ 
elty List.

15 to 18 in. when grown outdoors. Large, fully double imbri¬ 
cated or carnation-flowered type flowers freely produced. Nice 
for borders.

MISCELLANEOUS LARGE FLOWERED. 
Sunset Giants. The new giant flowered strain of Marigolds. We 
have often noted 7-in. flowers in California, or where conditions 
are at all favorable. Of carnation-flowered type, long-stemmed, 
and in a variety of shades from golden orange to lemon. Excel¬ 
lent for spring flowering in the greenhouse or for outdoors.

Chrysanthemum-Flowered Orange. (New). Strong orange. Real 
incurved form flower without collar petals. Fairly large and 
extra free flowering. Quite true, and distinctly new in type, and 
we believe will be excellent for forcing as well as for outdoor 
work. See Novelty List.

shaped or Chrysanthemum type of flower. Nice for cutting, but 
one of the latest flowering kinds on the list; occasionally too late 
for our early northern frosts. Excellent for southern states.

Seed crop of New Marigold "Floribunda" as grown for us

shine, but with a row of outer guard petals. Early flowering, 
good for spring greenhouse culture, but too weak where summers 
are hot. Odorless. 
Tr. pkt., 25c; 14 oz., 30c; 1 oz., $1.00. 
FRENCH MARIGOLDS 
9,000 seeds per ounce. 
DWARF SMALL FLOWERED. A most valuable class to flower in 
small pots for spring combinations. For this use, sow early in 
January and carry on in a warm house. Also, this class is largely 
used for bedding outdoors.

ange center with maroon-red outer petals. Quite striking and 
distinct. Valuable for cutting and bedding. See Novelty List

duce a high per cent of full petaled, tight double flowers. Finest

* Monarch Strain Mixed. A bright mixture of mahogany, orange, 
and yellow; same fine double flowers as Monarch Golden Ball. 
Flowers of this strain are more attractive than the Dwarf French 
Mixed that follows, but they are about 2 weeks later flowering. 
This should be remembered in sowing. 14 to 16 in.
