Burpee’s Showy Calendulas— Mariceias 
It is marvelous to see how plant breeders have improved the old-fashioned calendula. The beautiful varieties 
offered on this page, except where noted, are extra large-flowered and double to the very center. Where summers 
are not too hot, plants will bloom from early summer until frost, and furnish an endless supply of long-lasting 
cut flowers. Calendulas are of easiest culture, succeeding in ordinary, well-drained soil. Sow any time during 
the spring and early summer. 15 to 24 in. tall, depending on the variety.
