Calendulas —Scotch Marigolds 
It is marvelous to see how plant breeders have improved the old- 
fashioned Calendula that was grown generations ago. The beautiful 
varieties offered on this page, except where noted, are extra large- 
flowered and double to the very center. Where summers are not too 
hot, plants will bloom from early summer until frost, and fur¬ 
nish an endless supply of long-lasting cut-flowers. Calendulas 
are of easiest culture, succeeding in ordinary well-drained soil. 
Sow any time during the spring and early summer. The large- 
flowered varieties are also wonderful for greenhouse growing. 
15 to 24 in. tall, depending on the variety.
