MARIGOLD " Tagetes 
Hardy Annual. Garden flower. 8 to 48 inches 
All Marigolds are easy and accommodating plants to grow. There is a form for any type of situation and they yield an astonishing 
show of color in shades of yellow, orange, maroon and brown, in Summer and Autumn. There are bold, handsome, tall plants for mixed 
border plantings and temporary hedges as well as dwarf forms suitable for beds, edgings and window boxes. All are excellent cut flowers.
