Calendula Campfire Bodger's 
Improved Florist Strain (Bodger) 
A mong all calendula introductions, our 
novelty of several years ago, Campfire 
Rodger's Improved Florist Strain, maintains its 
place among the leaders. The color is well known, 
a very deep strong orange with a distinct scarlet 
sheen on the upper side of each petal. While the 
center is light, it is scarcely ever noticed because 
of the complete doubleness of the flower. Blooms 
are flat across the top, the type demanded by the 
florist trade, and measure at least 4" in diameter. 
The plants are strong growing and even in habit, 
with exceptionally long, heavy cutting stems pro¬ 
duced in generous quantity on each plant. Ideal 
for florist use. Campfire Improved is also popular 
with the home gardener.

Marigold Harmony Type 
French Tall Single Ferdinand (Bodger) 
L 
AUCY, sprightly and colorful, Ferdinand is one of the gayest of our new 
flowers. Unlike its companions in our new Harmony Type group, Ferdinand 
is single flowered with a neat 
round, crested center of 
dainty tubular florets in an 
arresting shade of golden 
yellow (5) surrounded by a 
single row of broad, ma¬ 
hogany-red guard petals. 
While the flowers are of only 
medium size, fo 1%" in 
diameter, they are extremely 
showy and attractive. The 
plants are tall growing, 20" 
to 24", with an upright, semi¬ 
compact, yet full foliaged 
growth habit. Stems are well 
over a foot in length, making 
Ferdinand a fine new cut 
flower subject as well as an 
attractive and showy garden 
plant. Like all of the Har¬ 
mony Type Marigolds, Ferdi¬ 
nand is early blooming, com¬ 
mencing to flower within 
three months after the seed is 
sown, and does not have the 
strong Marigold odor.
