MARIGOLDS ARE UNSURPASSED IN BEAUTY 
1732—Marigold—Yellow Supreme 
A. No flower family has been 
more improved in the last few 
years and no garden in the 
South is complete without Mari¬ 
golds. Not only do these color¬ 
ful blooms, that literally glisten 
in the sunshine, capture your at¬ 
tention and admiration but the 
neatly cut foliage on a sym¬ 
metrical bush is equally attrac¬ 
tive. 
On this page you will find new 
and old, and both dwarf and tall 
varieties with colors ranging 
from yellow, orange to brown to 
fit in almost any situation you 
may desire. Marigolds are easy 
to grow, they prefer sun and 
rich soil—Sow seed in Spring. 
Plants will bloom profusely un¬ 
til late Fall.

yellow. Given Award of Merit 1936 All-
