X-L FLOWER SEEDS 
Marigolds (a) 
Now you MUST plant Marigolds. The new varieties are either 
odorless or sweet scented, thus removing the one objection that 
this most popular flower had. 
310—SUNSET GIANTS 
(Seo natural color picture on back cover) 
Sunset Giants: We introduced this as a novelty in 1937 
and it received the most enthusiastic response ever accorded 
a new flower. Sunset Giants are the very largest Marigolds, 
developing flowers averaging 5 inches in diameter, while 
some growers have reported blossoms as wide across as 7 
to 8 inches. The definite sweet scent of the flower makes it 
very desirable for cutting. The flowers, full centered of fairly 
loose formation, with broad heavy petals gracefully over¬ 
lapping, are of great depth and the color is generally a 
deep golden orange. It comes into bloom in this section 
during August. For earlier blooms plants should be started 
inside. Flowers are over 90 percent double. Since we were 
able to secure more seed this year we are able to reduce 
the price over last year. Pkt., 20c; 2 for 35c. 
311—GUINEA GOLD 
Thi.T carnation flowered type produces from 30 to 40 flowers to 
each bush. They are usually 2 to inches across, brilliant 
orange flushed with gold. The odor is quite mild, flowers early and 
excellent for cutting. Pkt., 10c; % oz., 30c. 
Yellow Supreme Marigolds 
312—YELLOW SUPREME 
A large bloom of delicately mild honey fragrance, with 
broad, loose, frilled petals of a rich, creamy lemon-yellow.

remarkably healthy, vigorous and free branching with 
foliage which is practically free from that objectionable 
Marigold odor. Pkt., 10c. 
313—CROWN OF GOLD 
This flower is the only gold medal winner in the 
All American selection for 1937. It was given much 
publicity which seemed to have been justly deserved. 
It has absolutely no trace of the Marigold odor in the 
foliage, stems or flowers. Flowers are medium size, 
about 2% inches in diameter, are a lovely orange 
shade with a full crested center followed by a single 
row of broad guard petals. Unusually good for cut 
flowers. Blossoms early and lasts well. Pkt., 15c.

mosquito:; are attracted to areas where they will not bother 
people. Fk:., 10c; oz., 25c. 
MORNING GLORY 
(A) 10 TO 15 FT. 
There is plenty of reason why the improved Morning 
Glories are more popular than ever. Flower size has been 
increased so that they are often 4 inches across. They 
bloom much earlier and the color has been improved 
greatly. Foliage is also much 
thicker so that it provides more 
shade. To hasten germination it 
is advisable to nick through the 
hard outer shell with a knife or 
file. They should be planted in a 
sunny exposure, in sandy soil, 
and for an abundance of flowers 
should not be fertilized too much.

deep, intense blue shading lighter 
towards the center. Pkt., 10c;
