Calendula Chrysantha Twilight (Bodger) 
7VLTHOUGH a considerable number of new flower types have been developed 
in the Calendula group, none is enjoying more genuine and lasting popu¬ 
larity than the Chrysantha type. Headed in 1934 by the original Chrysantha or 
Sunshine the color range has been broadened by the subsequent introduction 
of Orange Sunshine and is now rounded out with the presentation of our current 
novelty Chrysantha Twilight. Twilight is large flowered, blooms measuring 4 
inches across, and has the same light, informal flower form with long, slender 
incurved petals, which makes it very pleasing for cut flower use besides being 
most decorative in the garden. The color is new, soft pastel yellow blended with 
white, reminding one of thick, rich cream. The creamy yellow shade is much 
deeper in the younger flowers than when they are fully developed. The color 
varies somewhat, some flowers lighter, others deeper and some even showing 
a slight tinge of apricot yellow. One of the most desirable characters of the 
Chrysantha type Calendula is the length of stem with a minimum of short lateral 
branches. Plants are about 2 feet tall and the stems all of 15 to 18 inches under 
ordinary field conditions. Although long, the stems are more wiry and less 
heavy-looking than the other types.
