NOVELTIES AND OTHER FLOWERS OF NOTE 
New Marigold, Harmony Type French Dwarf 
Double ' Harmony Hybrids 
(See illustration opposite) 
The compact plants are 12 inches to 14 inches in height, 100% All-Double, and 
flowering commences about two and a half months after seed sowing—one of the 
earliest of all Marigolds. The neat, dwarf, compact habit of the Hybrids, combined 
with the extremely early, free-flowering character of the plants make this new 
dwarf, Harmony Hybrids, one of the outstanding introductions of the season. 
Flowers are of medium size, rather large for the French type, averaging 1% inches 
in diameter and do not have the strong Marigold odor. All the flowers have the 
familiar crested center flanked by several rows of broad guard petals. As a showy 
garden subject, Harmony Hybrids take first honors.

New Marigold "Sunbeam” 
The color is a deep, rich, lively orange. The plants are strong growing, upright 
branching in habit, usually about 3 feet tall, producing a heavy growth of foliage, 
and with 6 to 8 heavy branches, each bearing 3 to 6 large flowers. Blooming com¬ 
mences about the first of August in most sections of the country, in late June in 
the southern states, and flowers can be depended on well before frost in any 
latitude. Orange Sunset has been tested and found to be a fine forcer in the green¬ 
house, and will come over 65 percent double. 
Sunbeam is not just an ordinary Marigold, so to speak, but is 
included in the popular new quilled or scabious flowered class. 
Flowers golden orange about 1 V 2 inches in diameter. A truly 
worthwhile addition to the Marigold family.
