Marigolds for Color 
in Late Summer and Autumn 
Tali Single French Marigolds 
626 JOSEPHINE. Its long stems make it ideal for cutting, and the velvety 
textured, golden brown flowers have a thread-like golden edge which gives 
them an unusual distinction. Considerable variation in flower markings must 
be expected, even from flowers growing on the same plant. Growth somewhat 
straggly; height 2 to 2 1 4 feet. Best used in center of beds or for filler in 
perennial borders. Don’t miss this one. Fkt., 10c.

Three Beautiful Carnation-Flowered Marigolds 
606 GUINEA GOLD. This is a very distinct type of marigold of graceful 
pyramidal habit, growing 2 to iVz feet high, and producing 30 to 40 
flowers, 2 to 2V 2 inches across, of a brilliant shade of orange flushed 
with gold. Unlike the ordinary African marigold, this new variety 
produces no single flowers, but practically 100 per cent semi-double. 
The characteristic marigold odor, too, is much less pungent than in 
other sorts. % oz., 25c; pkt., 10c. 
607 YELLOW SUFRSME. Flowers full double, creamy lemon-yellow, a 
little larger than those of Guinea Gold. Plants 2 to 3 feet tall, without 
the usual odor, and are free-blooming. A splendid companion for Guinea 
Gold. Pkt., 10c; y 8 oz., 25c. 
608 GOLDEN WEST. A new carnation-flowered marigold; earlier, larger, 
and more floriferous than Guinea Gold. Flowers are fully double, bright 
rich orange, 3V 2 inches and more across, with petals loosely and grace¬ 
fully placed. The inner petals are cupped upward while the outer ones 
curve downward. Petals are of wonderful substance so that the flowers 
last well when cut. Plants grow about 2 y 2 feet tall and as they branch 
very freely from near the base, the stems are quite long and the flow¬ 
ers are to be had along the sides as well as on top. V B oz., 50c; pkt., 15c.

609 COLLARETTE “CROWN OF GOLD”. An entirely new type of marigold, 
developed in California. The crown or top part of the flower resembles a chrys¬ 
anthemum in formation and is made up of long, disc petals that beautifully 
interlace. The crown and the collarette of big, broad petals which surround it 
are of a bright, pleasing shade of clear golden orange. The color holds even 
when the flowers are old. The flowers are slightly sweet-scented and the foliage 
is entirely free of the usual marigold odor, so objectionable to many. This is 
the first marigold in cultivation with entirely odorless foliage. Grow about 
2 feet, bloom early, and are very floriferous. Pkt., 10c; y 8 oz., 25c.

Marigold Tom Thumb 
625 GOLDEN CROWN. A dwarf form of 
marigold Guinea Gold, growing about 10 
inches high possessing all the merits 
its parent. The bright golden yellow 
flowers, larger and of the same ele¬ 
gant shape and firm substance, are 
produced in great abundance often to 
the number of 25 to 30 on a 
full grown plant. Practically 
all double. Pkt., 20c. 
Two New Gigantic Marigolds 
615 SUNSET GIANTS. This new class of marigold is the very largest yet 
developed, flowers in the garden with ordinary cultivation will average 
about 5 inches in diameter, while those grown for show purposes have 
been known to obtain a size of 7V2 to 8 inches. The definite sweet scent of 
the flowers adds to its value as a cut flower variety, as well as being a 
good garden plant. The full centered flowers of fairly loose formation, 
with broad heavy petals gracefully overlapping are of great depth and 
even larger than the dahlia-flowered zinnias. The color range includes 
deep orange, golden orange, deep golden yellow, light yellow, lemon 
yellow and a delightful new shade of primrose. The plants are extremely 
robust, producing a heavy growth, with 6 to 8 heavy branches, each bear¬ 
ing 3 to 6 large flowers. Plants are usually 3% to 4 ft. tall. Flowers are 
produced about the 1st of August. While a certain percentage of single 
flowers may still be found in this strain, the excellence of the full double 
more than compensates for the singles. Pkt., 15c; x / 8 oz., 35c; X A oz., 65c. 
616 ORANGE SUNSET. Like its parent variety, Sunset Giants, marigold 
Orange Sunset produces very large loosely formed full-centered flowers 
of a deep rich, lively orange. Size of flower and character of growth same 
as Sunset Giants described above. Pkt., 20c; 3 for 50c. For color illustra¬ 
tion see inside back cover.
