Marigold Dwarf 
Pot O' Gold (Bodger) 
TV NY HOME garden flower enthusiast will tell 
you that to be a favorite in her garden, a 
plant must be either very showy or fragrant or of 
exceptional size. A quick glance at favorite garden 
annuals will bear out the accuracy of this state¬ 
ment. Most flowers have one of these character¬ 
istics, very few all three. Marigold Dwarf Gigantea 
Pot O'Gold is one of those extraordinary plants 
which combine these three outstanding character¬ 
istics. A dwarf growing counterpart of our early 
introductions in the Gigantea type. Pot O'Gold is 
exciting even more favorable comment than its 
predecessors. The plants are dwarf and compact growing, 12" to 15" in height, 
well branched, very neat in appearance and bearing a dozen or more of its 
large blooms at a time. The flowers are of the Gigantea formation, that is some¬ 
what loosely formed, very full centered, with broad heavy petals gracefully 
overlapping, making a flower of great depth and beauty. Individual blooms are 
4" to 41 / 2 ^' in diameter, and the color a most penetrating shade of bright deep 
golden orange (10/1). The strain is exceptionally early flowering, coming into 
bloom on our ranches about the 20th of June and continuing in bloom for 7 or 8 
weeks. Not the least remarkable of its characteristics is the fact that Pot O'Gold 
is 100% double. Primarily a bedding subject for the garden. Pot O'Gold may 
also be cut for indoor use since the stems are 10" to 12" in length. A mass of 
intense dazzling gold. Pot O'Gold is truly a jewel found at rainbow's end.

We have just received 
word from a European cus¬ 
tomer, to whom trials of Pot 
O'Gold were sent last winter, 
that it is the earliest Marigold 
in his trials, coming into 
flower two weeks earlier even 
than Floribunda, generally 
considered earliest of the 
earlies. He pronounced Pot 
O'Gold also the finest variety 
he had seen.
