MARIGOLD (a) 
Late in the season when many other growing things are 
past their prime, these plants supply an abundance of deco¬ 
rative blossoms. Their tones of orange and yellow blend 
well when the flowers are arranged loosely in bowls and 
vases. The bright green foliage is finely cut, and the stems 
are stout. Tall Marigolds give charm to the border, while 
the dwarfs are valuable for bedding and edging plants.

moderately good soil, in a well drained, sunny position and 
within a few weeks from the time they are sown until hard 
frost comes, there is an endless profusion of their gorgeous 
blossoms.
