MARIGOLD h a m fF d 
In late summer, when many bedding plants are past their prime Marigolds afford 
a wealth of color. The African varieties produce large, self colored blossoms on 
long stems; the French are smaller, some of the varieties beautifully striped and 
spotted. A vase or bowl of any of the rich yellow sorts, in combination with a 
few blue Larkspurs or Cornflowers is very striking.
