Marigold Collarette Crown of Gold 
Gold Medal \ALL-AMERICAI ^ T StLf CTIONS/ 1937 
G IVEN more publicity than any other flower last season, Crown of Gold was 
the only Gold Medal winner in the All-America Selections Competition for 
1937. Its main claim to glory is the fact that there is absolutely no trace of the 
characteristic Marigold odor in the foliage, stems or flowers. It is the first of 
what will, undoubtedly, be a new race of completely odorless Marigolds. The 
flowers, which are of medium size, about 2V 2 inches in diameter, are a lovely 
golden orange shade with a full crested center of small tubular petals sur¬ 
rounded by a single row of broad guard petals. The plants are 2 x h to 3 feet 
in height, freely branched, with a sparse growth of foliage, not unusually showy 
in the garden, but with stems of good length for cutting. Crown of Gold is 
valuable as a cut flower variety, primarily, where it will be a boon to those 
who do not like or are sickened by the pungent Marigold scent. It is early 
blooming and stays in flower for several weeks.
